I found a list of specifications for the TS-480SAT giving the matching range as 16.7 Ω – 150 Ω. Another list of specifications for the TS-870SAT says that model's matching range is 20 Ω – 150 Ω. Both ranges roughly correspond to a 3:1 SWR, which is typical for antenna tuners built into transceivers. External antenna tuners generally offer more tuning ...

Very high. Harmonics work the other way around — antennas can be useful on higher bands than the design band, but almost never lower bands. A dipole cut for 40m might be good on 15m. An end-fed or a loop for 40m might be good on 20m and 10m. But pretty much any design of 40m antenna is going to be a half-size antenna on 80m, and very unlikely to be tunable ...
