What does "in series with one another" mean? In cascade? The output of one
driving the input of the other? Or the inputs in parallel and the outputs
in series? Or vice versa? Or both in parallel? Or both in series? 
What does "load into an antenna well on 80-10m with 100 watts? mean? What
antenna? What is the input impedance of what kind of transmission line of
what length at what frequency? Is this a single antenna that covers 10 -
10m?
What does "enable us to tune 160m" mean? What does "tune" mean? What are
the criteria for having "tuned 160m?"
Can't think about it unless I now exactly what these terms and phrases
actually are intended to mean.
Antennas can be difficult to anwer questions about. Sometimes it is even
harder to write the question that it is to answer it! <:}
But, I think I know the answer anyway . . . <:}
