I use an 80m dipole as you describe for 30, 40, 60 and 80 meters. Before putting up a tower/Yagi, I used it 10-80 and have worked 8B-DXCC (CW) with it.
15 ft of RG-213 goes out the shack window to a 9:1 balun, then 450-ohm ladder line up 110 feet to the center of the dipole. https://palomar-engineers.com/antenna-products/50-450-ohm-9-1-Balun-or-Unun-Core-Kit-5-32-MHz-1000-watts-PEP-end-fed-Ladder-Line-T2FD-antenna-p127674621 Tuner is a Palstar AT2K.
