   @HopelessDemigod There are several 3 element and 4 element 80 metre full sized yagis out there, and a few 3-eles on 160 metres. OH8X used to have a 3-ele on 160 with a 5-ele on 80 stacked above it, but that's only on a 100 METRE tower. Whew! https://ei7gl.blogspot.com/2009/01/mmmma-3-el-yagi-for-160m.html https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BYhlV_8SFcQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EYUPyBAJzBc

     Imagine having two ground insulated 130 foot towers spaced 131 feet apart. Tied between the two towers is an 80 meter half wave dipole fed with 600 ohm feedline.

     Imagine the contacts you could make on 160 and 80 meters.
