Default Principles of operation for dual band vertical antenna (2m/70cm)

Am I correct that in a dual band mobile antenna for 2M/70 cm - the lower
portion of the antenna is cut for 70 CM and the entire antenna including the
coiled portion is used for two meters? Does all or a portion of the coil
add to the length for either frequency?


For mine, the coil acts as a loading coil on 2m and a phasing coil on 70cm.
