I have an SGC-239 http://www.sgcworld.com/239ProductPage.html in a waterproof box on a tree about 100 feet from my house. Running a wire of unknown length. It was a loop of about 200 feet total length but the far end broke off in a wind storm and is now a longwire. To date I have confirmed 34 states on 160 CW via LOTW and it is my only 160 antenna. I worked a lot of 80-10M DX with this antenna before putting up a Steppir vertical. This past Sunday the Steppir failed (it will no longer tune) so I am back to SGC-239 as my primary antenna. BTW, the SGC-239 will tune everything from 160-6M. I always run 80W with it on CW and RTTY. For $200 it was well worth it.
