"The DX Engineering THUNDERBOLT™ MBVA-1UP is a rugged 43 foot, high performance 160-10 meter vertical multi-band ..............this antenna is very durable, attractive, and is an optimized height of only 43 feet!"

This above line appears on a page of the DX Eng. web site for a multiband 160-10 vertical

Can someone tell how 43ft can be claimed as an  optimized height on 160M?

I see ads from MFJ as well for 43 ft vertical.
