In my limited experience, no. My high (120-140 ft), coax-fed resonant 80M dipoles exhibit VERY high SWR on 30M.  A good tuner might put some power on the transmission line, but the loss would be very high. The fact that they don't hear well on 30m is a clue.

Hi Jim

Thanks for sharing the prez.

Question:  am considering recabling my 80 Inverted Vee as suggested. Any 
speculation on its performance on 30 m?
