The best rearrangement by far, for a G5RV, is to use a 600-ohm
open-wire line all the way from the dipole to the shack. With a few
feet extra just as a precaution.

You could also beneficially increase the length of the dipole if you
have enough room in your back yard. Another 10 or 20 feet would do no
harm.
