A Practical Antenna for 160 Metres
The antenna consists of 140 feet of insulated wire, the first half of which 70 feet is space wound on an insulated tube. I used glass fibre tubing which was to hand, but PVC may be used also

Antenna 160 meter Links →
160m inverted-L 12m long SpiderPole
It won't work as well as our verticals on longer Spiderpoles but will work a lot better than all short commercial 160m vertical antennas
Shunt-Feeding a Short Tower on 80 and 160m
160m is more of a challenge. A simple dipole doesn't fit in your typical yard. A quarter wave vertical requires quite a support structure. What we need is a effective compromise antenna
