This is not tower related and I hope that no one minds too much. I don't 
have a tower here at my QTH in the Blue Ridge Mountains but I do have 
tall trees.  Want to put up

a G5RV/ZS6BKW optimized wire antenna that I bought recently and 
wondering if adding the Windom Vertical Radiator would help 
significantly?  I had a Carolina Windom 160

up but it blew down a couple of winters ago.....it worked really well.  
Any comments re personal experiences will be appreciated...I've read 
some info on the Internet but actual

use comments are more valuable.
