Fern,

If you run much RTTY, you can appreciate the hammering running full out 
on that band can do to a rig barefoot...

I would be very interested to see what the answer comes up to be as 
well.  Most amps I've seen will load up on 30m in the 20m position, 
albeit with some compromise in tuning range and usually lousy SWR if the 
input network has a Q above about 2.5.
