Default Close spaced multiband antenna

Reference: Figure 7-6 of ARRL Antenna Handbook,
Chapter Seven, 19 th edition


For your convienience:

Has anyone had any luck with this antenna?

I have constructed a similar vertical in a "fan" shape that has
performed well for me but when I start getting the wires this close
together like this the results are unpredictable.

I think this scheme has appeared in the Handbook for many years.
