A G5RV would fit and meet your needs for all band operation with a tuner. Hi Fred, The standard G5RV is a pretty good antenna for 80m, 40m, 20m, & 12m. Not bad on 15m, but the SWR on the coax for 30m, 17m, & 10m is greater than 40:1 according to EZNEC. I have optimized my G5RV for 40m, 17m, & 10m operation by making the series balanced section 36 feet of 450 ohm ladder-line. -- 73, Cecil http://www.qsl.net/w5dxp |
