Wide bandwidth combined with small size is usually a bad sign. Physics
tends to make small antennas narrow banded, unless they are lossy.

In the product development world, we say "Fast - cheap - good: pick any
two." Antennas are subject to a similar constraint, as Jon points out -
"Small - broadband - efficient: pick any two."

For someone in a land yacht and spending vast amounts of
vacation/retirement time on the roads--looks like one dream of a solution.

Buy a new home in my area, $600,000+, and this might be your only
solution to remaining "radio-active."
