You have obviously never swept a stub with a SWR analyzer.  The Q is not 
very high.  Low Q is actually a problem.  Some guys make these stubs out 
of CATV hardline to increase the Q.  I am using some networking coax that 
has two shields.  Even so, it's not like you are going to need a stub for 
14Mhz SSB and another for 14Mhz CW.  Not even close.
