That's what EZNEC says via AutoEZ.

One interesting number is 42dB F/B at 0.5MHz for 120'. Is that correct? But the problem seems to go beyond low signal level on the lower band with smaller DKaz. Beyond that one data point I mention, it also seems that the larger DKaz provides significantly better F/B on the low band, as it also weakens the F/B on the upper band. Looks like two DKaz' are in order for the next DXpedition, a big one and a small one...
