Bill,
 Thanks. I will stay down around 1809. I can adjust the bw on the vertical
(coil) however.

Why so high in the band? I suspect nearly all ops have their 160
antennas cut for low in the band so they can do CW DXing. The ARRL
bandplan calls for digital modes to be from 1800-1810.  I would
suggest avoiding 1810 since that is also (unfortunately) the ARRL's
suggested QRP CW frequency.
