 Are T-tops ever used in NA for commercial BCB stations?

The  high power shortwave station that I used to work at had  4 x 4 
broad-banded dipole arrays in front of  large reflectors.  (~21dbi gain 
depending upon frequency)

The antenna in a simpler single dipole configuration has the wire ends tied 
with a perimeter wire  to give very wide frequency banding. For a modern 
version of the old T-top see.
