Sure, that should work fine, and will also let you use the T or 
Inverted-L on other bands.  (Although the patterns will get 
"interesting" on the higher bands.)

The remote tuner will probably be slightly less efficient, due to its 
small, close-wound coils and all the switching relays.  It will 
certainly be about $378 more expensive than a hairpin coil!
