When I was getting back on the air in 2003 in Chicago, I needed a 
shortened antenna for 80 and 40. I bought his shortened 80/40 dipole. 
It's a full size half wave on 40, with loading coils and more wire on 
each side for 80M. It worked fine. When I moved to CA, I bought only the 
loading coils for the comparable 160/80 version. I've since used those 
coils to build 160/80/40M antennas at two very different sites. I built 
the 160/80 per Barry's design, and added a fan element for 40M.
