[TowerTalk] Suggestions for 80, 160m?

Hi all,
	I'm think of putting up an antenna to cover 80 and 160 m bands and
I find all the argument about low band antennas somewhat confusing, so I'll
just ask straight out: What kind of antenna will give me DX on low bands?
	I have a 55 foot tower (crank-up) on a hilltop near the ocean
  with a 40m rotatable dipole and a TH7DX on the top.
There is a 20 foot pole available about 100ft away downhill, available for a
sloper if needed and it probably would be difficult to bury radials.
	Given  all that, what kind of antenna would work best?

Thanks & 73
