I'm not sure of the B&W antenna for 80 through 10.  The one I mentioned
covering 160 through 10 is the BWD1.8-30 folded dipole.  I still think this
is one of the quietest antennas I've ever used.  If I could find one used
and reasonable, I'd probably buy it again for net and regional work.

If you can get a center support from 35 to 50 feet high, I would look real
hard at the Alpha Delta DX-A Twin Sloper.  I use this for DX on 80 and 40
and for 1670 work.  I have worked the South Pacific, Caribbean and all over
the U.S. including Hawaii and Alaska with this antenna on 160 and about 600
watts.

I hope that helps a little.  Good luck and very 73.
