>  Having designed a two band interlaced 30/17m I gained enormousrespect for those designers with proven performance multi-band designs.A lot of hours at the PC.  Plus I wonder about how designers got itright in the "old days".

    When I was the Natl Sales Manager for Hy-Gain/Telex in the 90's, I met the guy that designed the TH-6. Hy-Gain had a nice antenna range and he said it took them 4 hours per iteration so I guess we'd say it was by educated trial-and-error.
