Hi Mike,

What happens to be the compromise?

As a multiband antenna it
better not outperform a specific band dipole.


Seems unlikely to perform any different than any equal length of wire
(the length of the fundamental band, that is). Only the feed Z
changes is all (or so modeling would lead me to believe).
