I have used both the inverted L on 160 meters with great results plus it
performed great on other bands except 40 meters. My personal favorite is
the center feed double extended Zepp feed with open ladder line and a good
antenna tuner or matchbox. If its cut for 80 meters it exhibits about 3 Db
gain over a standard dipole, same hold true for forty meters. The forty
meter Zepp operates similar to a 80 meter dipole. The higher in frequency
the lobes get interesting and exhibit gain in certain directions.

I have worked all over the world using 100 watts on 80 meters through 10
meters including the WARC bands.

A Extended Zepp center feed is one of the best keep secrets. Good luck
