[TowerTalk] Ferrite Cores in Trapped Dipoles

I searched through the archives and found plenty of references to using ferrites/toroids as baluns, but nothing that led me to using ferrites/toroids as part of LC traps for dipoles.
 
Have I missed the thread or are we on new ground? Will I get better efficiency and quality control than say a coax trapped dipole or a more traditional open coil LC trap? My objective is a multi-band trapped dipole to handle 100 watts.
 
Thanks and 73
