I think the only reason people group together there is a combination
of tradition and SWR.  I'm not aware of any 160m antenna that covers
the whole band with acceptable SWR.  If there is one, please let me
know.

I work some CW occasionally on 160 and it's all at the low end.  I'm
open to suggestions for a high- and low-end antenna.
