BTW....Vuuuurrrrryyy important...If you dual band it, you
must use an ungrounded series matching coil. There can be
no dc connection to ground, if you want it to work on 30m.

I guess I forgot to say I plan to use it on 40m-10m driven
by an SGC-230 which will match virtually anything. The
resistive impedance and the reactive impedance are less
than 1000 ohms on all bands so I think the SGC-230 will
not be extremely lossy.

I once forgot to attach the Hustler coil to the Hustler
bottom section so the antenna was about four feet long
with no loading. The SGC-230 faithfully loaded that
four foot long vertical on 75m. But please don't ask
about efficiency.
