A 1/2  wavelength (or multiple of) of 75 ohm hardline could be used and  
when
hooked to a 50 ohm antenna, 50 ohms will be seen at the other end of  the 75
ohm line.



That's true, but difficult to do for a tribander.  The 1/2 wave xfrmr  is 
simple to do for monoband setups, but becomes more complex for triband  
situations, which is what most guys have.
