AH, yes, a dipole that covers BOTH 30 and 40M gets a bit tricky.
The usual trap isolator would require a FULL SIZE dipole on 30M
which is ~50 ft plus extensions for 40M, making it nearly full size
on 40M which is mechanically 'challenging'.
I like the Cushcraft 40M elements over linear loaded elements.
A CC D40 stacked with a D3W for the WARC bands might be
a good solution.
It should be fairly easy to modify another D40 to work as
a stand alone 30M rotary dipole.
