So you use the same Amateur Radio Antenna for the 160m and 80m Bands as you do for the 6m and 2m Bands. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amateur_radio 160-Meter Amateur Band = 1.815 to 1.89 MHz 80-Meter Amateur Band = 3.5 to 3.8 MHz 6-Meter Amateur Band = 50-54 MHz 2-Meter Amateur Band = 144-148 MHz MK # 1 - " An antenna is an antenna is an antenna. " But A Piece of Wire - Now That's Electrical ! ) MK #2 - "Do you think when I switch from a SWL to a ham band, I need to switch antenna types?
