With .7 or .8 dB insertion loss, the power dissipation is something like

OK as a receive only filter. Any serious 160 meter station has a separate
receive antenna path anyway.

I haven't tried it but W3NQN also has a receive-only, BCB high-pass filter
with better specs. Not cheap, though, at $200.
