I have a folded dipole up for 80m with a shorter coupled resonator (dipole)
inside it to improve
2:1 SWR bandwidth to the full band.
(so it looks like 3 wires)
Fed with ladderline. 6:1 current balun close to the shack.
In hindsight, I wish I would have put another folded dipole inside the folded
dipole as the
coupled resonator. That would have been cool to try, and I think would have
gotten me better
impedance match across the band.
