Hey Rev,

Check out the Central Electronics 100V and 200V transmitters.  They are
no tune 10-80 meters, all modes, no tune!  They were made in the late
50's and are tube technology.  So broadband tuned circuits did exist in
the ham market.  It probably just came down to cost.  Today with all the
WARC ham bands it is probably alot cheaper to build a rig with broadband
tuned circuits and as you've indicated operation is very convenient.
