You can top load it for 160 meters with
a couple of wires about 50 meters long.
If it is series resonant on 160, it will
be parallel resonant on 80.  You can
feed it as a voltage fed antenna on
80 with a simple LC network.  We
used an antenna like this in the winter
of '99 (it was actually 90 feet high).
