It is a basic 20m extended zepp used on 40m-10m with ladderline and a tuner.
You can add an extension to gain 80m. Anybody tried this antenna?

Technically, an Extended Double Zepp is a single-band antenna. That
76 ft. antenna is an EDZ on 15.8 MHz. An EDZ is 1.28WL, the point of
maximum gain for a dipole pattern. Below 15.8 MHz, the radiation pattern
will have two main lobes. Above 15.8 MHz, the radiation pattern will
become multi-lobed (cloverleaf) and have very little broadside radiation.
On 6.2 MHz, that antenna is just a 1/2WL dipole. It should work well on
40m-10m.
