Sounds like a delta loop (one element) is OK, even a
vee beam (one element). Oddly, it seems to permit
multiple single-element antennas for 40, 80, and 160.
A set of vee beams for 40/80/160 would be interesting
...and might get the rule changed to only one (1)
single-element antenna for each of 40/80/160. :-)
