This all is getting so complex, to presere my sanity and pocket book I might
just be forced to go back to resonant antennas on all bands so I can use
coax without undo loss! Hi!

There you go. Run a piece of Heliax out there and use one of your
coax relays as it was intended.

Even at SWR = 3:1 @ 28 MHz, 200' of 1/2" Heliax will lose only about a
dB. Use 7/8" line and you could stand 5:1 for less than a dB.
