What have been your best and worst antennas ever? 

 

My best antennas for 80/40 is the Double Bazooka; it is a single band
antenna; so, I used one for each band.

 

My best 20/15/10 antenna was the TH-5dxx tri-bander beam.

 

My best 40-10 meter, compromise antenna was the Hi-Gain 14AVQ trap vertical

My best all band antenna 80-10 meters is the 80 meter, full-wave loop using
my LDG AT1000PRO II Automatic Antenna tuner.

 

The worst antenna was probably the all-band, trap dipole; it performed
equally poorly on all bands!

 

What about the rest of you?
