A little late comment, but I once had two dipoles on a single coax for 75/80 meters. One cut for mid-phone band, and one for mid-CW band. The two were spread at about a 90 degree angle to each other. Think of a multi-band multi-element dipole on a single feedline, but on sub-bands of 80 m. It worked well on both parts of the band and just had a little SWR hump in the middle, about 1.5/1 or so. Of course, it took quite a bit of real-estate, and may have been more effective in different directions on each
end of the band.
