Ok, for MONOband use only, what about a simple parallel resonant circuit, 
consisting of a solenoid coil of  50 ohm coax + parallel resonating fixed or 
variable cap, or padding a variable cap ?  
With cap wired between input and output braid.  On paper, this appears to be a  
very high Z, and low Q device.  And wide enough to cover one ham band in 
question.   Is it doable ? 
Whats the optimum  L to C ratio  for this concept to work ?   IE; we would want 
the highest Z practical, but a Q such that the high Z covers an entire band, or 
portion of one band, or freqs of interest.
