==========
Be prepared to retune your 160-meter shunt feed system (mainly the height
of the shunt wire tap) because this will increase the top loading of the
tower quite a lot, making the shunt feed parameters significantly
different.

Your 160-meter signal will probably benefit because of the increased top
loading.
