I prefer to do as little work as possible. Put up any length of dipole (at 
least 3/8WL long at the lowest operating frequency) and feed it with 
ladder-line. Sit in the warmth of the shack and adjust the ladder-line 
length until a current maximum point is reached. If the SWR is lower than 
2:1, don't even bother with a tuner. Check out the All-HF-Band-Antenna on my

web page.
