I've looked at some commercial "full size" G5RV's and the leg lengths
are about 51 feet long each, that seems a tad short for 80 meters. Would I experience quite a bit of loss in the tuner ( External ) Or maybe I should try and erect a dipole with leg lengths as long as I can and feed it with 450 Ohm Ladder line or 300 Ohm twinlead and be able to operate on 30 meters ? I understand the G5RV doesn't work too well for 30 meters, and I need some place to operate during contests. My primary bands of interests are 80 thru 20 CW. Thanks in advance. Gary K8IQ |
