Julius,

Off hand, without doing the design, I'd say something on the order of one 
F-140-43 or two F-114-43.  You can't get there with a T-XX-6; not enough 
umph.  Takes F-XX-61 at the least.  Why limit it to 160 to 30 meters? The 
BL-1 covers 160 through 6.  See http://www.njqrp.org/balun/index.html

Chas,
