Years ago running Mininec on an Apple ][+, I worked out that if a double
extended zepp was something like 82 or 85' feet long and feed with a 300
ohm line 200 feet long, it was nearly resistive on all bands from 20 to
6m. N0AN put one up like that fed with Belden 8290 shielded twin lead
and it did have a decent match through 4:1 balun over that range. Above
20m, the pattern does break out into a cloverleaf with a null broadside.
