Default using an MFJ-941E tuner on all bands?

My naive understanding was that I could hang up a 100ft dipole and use
a tuner to transmit on all bands. What bands can I reasonable expect
to transmit on using a 100ft dipole and a tuner?

That last part of the warning about using an 80 meter dipole as a
longwire has me totally confused. Are they saying to snip off the
coax connector and plug the ends into the longwire connector in the
back of the tuner?

P.s. I finally have the 21st edition of the ARRL Antenna book. I'm
only on chapter 2, so please feel free to point out page numbers or
chapters that would probably answer my questions



Jim,

Check this one out.
