And Joe presented a very useful tabulation showing how signals combine. One thing that we should keep in mind is that single band antennas like Steppirs, single band dipoles, etc. greatly attenuate out of band signals. And from Joe's data look what a difference 10-20 db can make. This might be a good case against 80/40 fan dipoles and trap tribanders.
