This is wrong interpretation.
>From the official CQ-WPX rules website:
"(a) Tribander/Single Element (TB-WIRES): During the contest an entrant
shall use only one (1) tribander (any type, with a single feed line from the
transmitter to the antenna) for 10, 15, and 20 meters and single-element
antennas on 40, 80, and 160 meters".
I.e. feedline should be single.

>> Hi, All!

>> Can someone explain what the meaning of the "tri-bander" phrase in the
