I heard Lou, but couldn't work him.

My tuner wouldn't handle the SWR of my dipole on that frequency.

I've been thinking of replacing my 40 meter antenna with something like 
the High Power Antenna dipole for 160, 80, and 40, and leaving the 80 
meter portion tuned for the low end of the band.

Another option might be a double bazooka, but I take their band width 
claims with a grain or two of salt.
