If you like what you get with "several turns," try more turns, guided by my 
choke cookbook. Don't bother with clamp-ons unless they're big enough to put a 
lot of turns through them. Single turn clamp-ons are pissing in the wind on 
160, and "several turns" isn't a lot better. See my choke cookbook, referenced 
in previous post.
