Gents,

My current 160 antenna (if you can call it that) is an inverted "L" about 32' up and 90 out.  I have a coil to ground and tapped the bottom to match the coax feed line and the top to tune the antenna.

Can someone suggest a simple way to use it for 80 meters ? I can do a relay switching or even manual change over. I'm thinking a series capacitor might have to be pretty big and wide spaced to withstand a three tube Alpha 78. 

Thanks,
