Have you considered using a trap in the L for 80 meters?  This would make
the matching problem for two bands easier.  The total length will be less
than your original L due to the trap.  This is what the Battle Creek Special
does as well as an antenna built by K1ZM which is described in ON4UN's book,
and I think somewhere on the web.
