KLM also made a center loaded coil vertical advertised for 40-80 OR 160
meters years ago. It was 24 feet tall & the coil stock was made by , who
else, B&W.
Taps were made on the coil to obtain resoance, and they sold for around
$250.

KLM made a 80/40 vertical which was about 60 feet tall.  Light three
corner
design as I remember. A local Atlanta W4 had one which he
added loading (top wires) for 160 .   You may be thinking of the Dentron
Skyclaw 160 vertical that had a late 70's QST review by Larry Price now
W4RA.   This was a 28' short vertical.
