I know you could use the C31XR on 10-15-20 and one of the dipoles or the 40M yagi, but I wanted to be real sure you mean that you can also use 2 bands on the C31XR. I think that's what you mean, since Jack was asking that question specifically. I also have a C31XR at 70ft, but I only have a single feedline from shack to tower (600ft). However, I could install a switchbox at the tower and run 3 feedlines up to the antenna, then control the switchbox remotely. Hmmmmmmmm........
