Soon to be new to HF. I need help in choosing a dipole. I want to work
10-80 meters but low on space.....any ideas? help??

The G5RV length, 102 feet, will work on 75m-10m fed with ladder-line through
a balanced tuner. Another idea is to put up a 50-66 ft dipole center fed with
ladder-line for 40m-10m. Short the two lines together at the tuner output for
75m. This is called feeding it Marconi style and requires a counterpoise. The
ARRL Antenna Book contains a wealth of information (most of it valid :-).
