I can read all kinds of info about the 'full sized' G5RV, but I have yet to
find any detailed performance info on the G5RV Jr.

Like:
- The original G5RV was designed mainly for 20 meters, with acceptable
performance on 80/40 and if you are lucky maybe 17. What might be the
optimum band for the Jr., if it has one?


Antennas are scalable with frequency. The full-sized G5RV is a
pretty good performer on 80m, 40m, and 20m (also 12m). The 1/2
sized G5RV will therefore be a pretty good performer on 40m,
20m, and 10m.
