I used to have a Valor 160 Meter mobile antenna several years ago. It had been heavily used and the coil had split in the center from being weathered. Since Valor is no longer around, it seems we are now left with a pile of junk known as the Jetstream 160 meter antenna, which in my opinion is like most new stuff today, Junk.
Is there anything left besides JS that I do not know about? I would love it for the 160 meter band, but it also works very well on the AM BCB for DX'ing. Since I do all of my radio hobbies from my truck and not at my house, it would be good to know what the options are, if any. It seems as time goes on, the durability of antennas, radios and accessories goes down the drain.
The other antenna I have had good luck with is a 102" steel whip.
I am working on a directional AM BCB DX antenna for the car, so far, it is working well.
