Junior,

How does your long G5RV work on the bands
above 160 meters.  I'm particularly interested in 80 meter performance as 
most 160 antennas do not work well at all on 80 meters as on 80 your feeding 
2 half waves ad a very high impedance point.

Tom and Pat, just checked my 204 foot g5rv no continuity.
I believe you have a problem Tom I am no expert though.
My g5rv works pretty good even though it is only 10 foot off of the ground
on each end.
