Steve, thanks for the info and I will look it up.  It is out of my price
range but I was wondering how it was made into a multiband antenna.

Fred,

I don't have one of these, but just poked around on the web site.   It's 
an off center fed, so no traps.   The extra cost seems to be in the 
balun, since it is rated at 4 kw pep.    You can get the same model 
rated at 10 kw pep for $329, so these baluns must be pretty substantial.

here is a link: (go down the page to "AS-OCF-2K")
