I am using a modified Alpha Delta DX-A 1/4 wave sloper attached at
approx 72 feet on my 86 foot tower. I removed the loading coil and now
have 5 wires whch are two full size 160m wires, two full size 80m wires
and a 60m wire. I don't need a tuner on any of these bands. It needs
slight tuning on 30m. I worked Amsterdam Island on cw with it.

Have any of you folks used, or tried a half sloper.... aka 1/4 wave
sloper ? Loaded or otherwise ? I'm talking about say terminated up
80-90' up a tower.
I have used slopers on 75m with reasonable success, but never 160m.
Radials, elevated or on ( or in) the ground isn't happening. Wife put
the kabosh on that.
