I'm the guy in MD with the 140 foot BOG. Mike is correct. My BOG works good on 160, better on 80, and best on 40. Very low noise levels with improved snr on all 3 bands. I feed it with cheap quad shield RG6. Best of all the antenna is invisible to the XYL as it lives on the opposite side of our privacy fence. Mike can set you up with the proper transformers and terminating resistors.
