Roger, you better keep your head down.  I'm not sure who it will be (the G5RV crowd or the "open wire is perfect" crowd), but the 
chances of you meeting a bad ending from this statement is high!  You are talking about the sacred cows here.  ha ha.

73, Jeff AC?C

###  I have yet to see or hear a G5RV that actually  works worth a damn.......esp on 80m.   Now if you stuck it up 100'...
and at least made it rotatable, then you would be way ahead.     A dipole that's  up high is pretty good.    It's 14 db better if you can
rotate it !      Or at least try and get 2 of em  up....at right angles.... sorta like a 'T'   [get em far apart].   If you look at the various patterns
of these ants on each band... you can see at a glance, that there is a lot of nulls.   With any fixed wire ant, you are bound to have nulls  in
the desired directions.
