That is exactly the way my amp is built. I'm sure there will be 
comments about the Q not being optimum on some bands, but it works 
well from all evidence I can see. It took a while to fine tune the 
taps so the tuning "feels" right and power output/efficiency are 
what they should be 30/20, 17/15, and 12/10 but it was worth it.
