Hi.
I found the triplexer to be helpful--not because I was necessarily looking
to run 6 meters on the same antenna with 2 meters and 70 cm, but because
the 6 meter halo that I have is on the same mast with the 2 meter/70 cm
vertical, and I was coupling a lot of 6 meter energy back into the front
end on 2 meters. I found the triplexer to be very effective in arresting
that problem.
