My experience is with the AH-2/AH-3.  I have used it on MARS freqs more than
amateur freqs.  It worked everywhere I put it, as long as the antenna was
not in the 1/2 wave area it doesn't like.

I have not seen any mention of what the minimum size was for it to function
on 160m.  I have an AH-2 and a 35 ft fiberglass vertical right now, and
while not real efficient, it does work on 160.  Will the AH-4 do that?
