"With 160 meters being the LOWEST band in frequency, why is it referred
to as TOP band?"
==========
Reason #1: It is the longest-wavelength amateur band.  (In the old days,
if we were on the 80-meter band and wanted to QSY to the 160-meter band,
we said "Let's QSY UP to 160.")

Reason #2: It is the best (most challenging for DX) band.
