Maybe I misunderstood the point below, but it looked to me, from examining
the empirical data presented in the article, that a spread of 6 feet did a
decent job of broadening the swr curve of a 75/80 m dipole.

If 6' worked so well in the article, why are you saying "dual wires spread
less than 15'" as something that "doesn't work" ? Are you discussing
something else?

Some things that do not work, "the bazooka", dual wires spread less than
15
feet, and any of the antennas that are terminated folded dipoles.
