Hi Jack,
The GAP Voyager is not great, but sometimes it's the best 160-meter antenna
in the yard. We always make contacts and score points and mults with it, and
many folks have less. Just don't expect a miracle.
80 DX is fair to middling, but it's not a pileup-buster. As a domestic
antenna, my long Carolina Windom is a much better performer, by a huge
margin.
Forget the rest of the bands.
Just my opinion.
Take care, hope this helps.
