Default Any experience with the G5RV multiband wire antenna?

R.L.Varney himself never gave a value to Zo. He didn't need to. He was
concerned mainly with 14.15 MHz. It would be unfair to accuse him of
not understanding the serious effects of Zo on other bands.


However, in The ARRL Antenna Compendium #1, he did describe the
matching section well enough to calculate his Z0. It is #14
copper open-wire separated by 1.75 inches. I'll bet that's
an improvement over 300 ohm twinlead.
