John,
I would not use the telescoping tower as a radiator too many possibilities for
poor connections. I would put a short

the pulley and
match/load it on 160. Slope the wire down away from the tower to minimize any
coupling.

And this allows you do to all sorts of alternate schemes, like an
inverted V, or pairs of V's or fan dipoles, etc.
