At 150' it is really not long enough to work as a Beverage on 160 meters (a Beverage needs to be 1 x wavelenght long, or more, indeed, 3 to 5 times more). That antenna, however, may still be a good low noise RX antenna, and thus useful. So try it. It sure could be a great RX antenna for 80, 40 and 30 meters. If you have more space, make it longert. If not, lay it on the ground, as a BOG, which can be a lot shorter for a similar pattern, but with lower gain. (i.e. you may need a pre-aplifier).
