I often work fellas on 6M who apologize for "using a 40M dipole."
Their sigs are usually every bit as strong as others.


For a 40m dipole running North/South, the major lobes on 6m
would be N27W, N27E, S27W, S27E, i.e. pretty much end fire.
I use my 20m rotatable dipole as an emergency TV antenna
when cable is down.
