Are these radials ground-mounted or elevated? If they are ground-
mounted, don't try to cut the radials to any particular length for
each band. Just put down 24 radials the same length as you would cut
for 80m.
If the radials are elevated, then the length becomes more critical,
and you might cut individual radials for each band.
