I would use a vertical on 160m.  Another option is a vertical dipole with
the ends bend away from the tower making a C shape.

And not to change the  subject but can i get an opinion  for this
weekends 160 contest? I have a  customer with a 180ft support I can use
to hold up an antenna.    Should i put  up an inverted v or a vertical
with 4 ground radials 135 ft long. the feed  point will be 50 ft above
the ground.

Thanks.
