Geo -
Thats lots of tower for your load! Heck, a #6 base with a #2 top would
allow you 100 feet and 10+sf top, 15+sf side mounted.
As for loading, it isn't any different from other shunt feeding situations.
Your six meter beam will add a little to the electrical length (cap hat).
Should work fine. You might want to consider unipole configuration and
remember to put down some radials.

I am putting up a rhon SSV 100' freestanding tower with #8 bottom section
and #4 straight top section. There will be a 6 meter beam on a 34' boom and
a 17' mast out the top. Has anyone else loaded such an arrangement on 160
by shunt feeding? would be interested in the technique.
