Hi I wish to hook up my G5RV so that the centre is on my mast and the legs
go one to my chimney, and the other to my neighbours chimney. the mast from
both chimney's is about 55 feet. the two chimneys are about 50 apart. It
will form a V with the feeder at the mast. Will it work or is the angle to
tight

Thanks in anticipation

Peter

Egad, how big of a job could it be to put it up and try it?

I will go so far as to say that even in the configuration that you described
(original poster) it will easily outperform any $400 to $500 multiband
vertical antenna that you can buy (figured on the highest average
performance on the most available bands). Good enough?

I thought the feedline could not be near the METAL mast... Am I wrong?

So use PVC, or some other work around.
