A dipole is a dipole is a dipole - don't matter if it's for 160m or 70cm.

I'd love to have the acreage to install three 120' towers.
I'd have a pair of dipoles on 75m - one at the 60' level and the other at 
120', to utilize ground and sky wave propagation at the same time.  Then, I'd 
probably install three more, for a 2 bay, 2-element beam on 75.
What the heck - I can dream, right? ;->
