It works on 11m pretty well when the two whips are low loss.
Not well at all on 75m.

Well, maybe yes and no. I think I heard that it is called "series tuning".
Now you would have to
mount the things on opposite ends of the car. Whether there is anything to
be gained, I haven't
tested it. It eliminates the matching network, tho. Heck, I've got enough
antennas on my car
without that.

I was thinking it was simply a resonant 1/4WL director or reflector
which would be very lossy on 75m.
