I, too, will give you a totally subjective opinion.
On the 3B6RF expedition, we set up a Titanex V160 for  transmit/receive.  We 
also had several Beverages (admittedly very near salt  water, which is not a 
good thing), and a K9AY pennant.  
The Beverages lost in all cases.   If we could hear on the V160,  we stuck 
there, but the K9AY pennant (using the matching boxes supplied by  
Lance-Johnson 
Engineering (K0CS)), rarely, if ever, was not the better  antenna.  Riki, 
4X4NJ, a world-known, world-class 160 man, was absolutely  amazed at the 
pennant.
73,
Steve
