[TowerTalk] 40/30 nested moxons?

Has anyone experimented with a nested pair of 40/30 moxons?

I'm in the early planning stages of a very modest suburban  
installation, with
2 el 40 @ 70' (zoning limit) and steppIR @ 60'.    Would like to  
include 30.
I have seen designs to change the loading, to effect band change on  
the same
elements.   They are clearly sub-optimal in spacing on the upper band.

Turning radius is an issue here, and the folded moxon  elements are  
of interest.
(shade tree commission is worse than the zoning folks!)

If there's a good reference, I'd appreciate the lead.
