I`m playing around with wire antennas at present and amazed that a 60ft wire
from a tree to my house, run down the back of the house and connected to a
balun as it goes through the wall in coax seems to be ahead of my G5RV(full
length) and a home made 40Mtr wire dipole for SWL. My question is! The tree
is at the bottom of the garden(almost central) if I connect another length
of wire to the end at the tree and bring it back to the other side of the
house it would be in a `V` formation(horizontal) rather than a straight line
and about 150ft total length, do you think it would be much of an
improvement over the straight 60ft or would I start to run into any problems
like overload etc? I use table top receivers that have att`s etc.

Why wouldn`t a 102ft G5RV work better than the 60ft straight I wonder, they
both face roughly the same direction and are both to the rear of the house
facing fields????? The G5RV is about the same height as the 60ft wire (22ft)

Thanks for any advice
