Good grief!!! A RARE TENTEC G5RV. Save it for Ebay Ed. That thing will
probably go for hundreds of bux in a few years.

Questions:

Q. Will TenTec support their G5RV after the sale?
A. No. The owner must use trees.

Q. What is the difference in A TenTec and MFJ G5RV?
A. MFJ still sells theirs.

Q. How high should G5RV's go?
A. No more than $40.

Q. Can I use my G5RV on my motorhome?
A. Yes but only the G5RVRV model.

Q. Why don't they make a mobile whip G5RV?
A.  Mainly due to the height problem dummy.
