Let me restate my goal.

Here is my situation. I live in Northern MI & have 5+ acres of mostly woods
with many hardwood trees averaging 60'. I also have about 1500'of wire & a 3
element tribander for 10-15 & 20. I use a 100 watt transceiver - no amp. I
live in a rural, low-noise environment.

I also want to work 160, 80/75, 40, &17. I don't mind doing separate wire
antennas for these bands but would prefer 1 antenna. I have a homebrew
link-coupled tuner that covers 160-17 (plug in link-coils).

I want to work stateside & DX on 160 & 75 & 17.

What is the best use of my 1500' of wire to achieve my goals.

I am going to put up a horizontal loop @ about 60' in hopes of having a
decent 160-10 antenna. Is there any adavntage to increasing the the total
length from 1 wavelength at the lowest freq. (about 530') to 2
wavelengths(1,060'). i have the space & the wire & I'm wondering if it's
worth the extra effort.

Also, am I better off with a 3/8 WL inverted L on 160.
