I MIGHT move #HamRadio masts today.
Now that I've had a while to get to know the #DxCommander #MultiBandVertical, it's clear it has different compromises from the #TuneATenna. I can't get dead-on resonant on ANY HF band, like I can with the Tune-A-Tenna.
HOWEVER, the optimum height above ground for a vertical on any band is 0ft. For the #InvertedVee, it's different on every band, & the Tune-A-Tenna is only remote-adjustable for element length, not height.
#HeightIsEverything on VHF.

I mean let's face it, that's a beautiful sky, and a beautiful #HamRadio #hfAntenna ...with an Abe Lincoln style stovepipe hat on top of it, made of snow.
It's great to have an #InvertedVee #dipole that's perfectly tuned for wherever I'm operating. As shown here, it's set for 6m... where I don't expect to see much action today, but one never knows.
