Tom,
Where is the center or feed point of your G5 in relation to your RV? I
mean, is it over any point of the RV? What I am thinking is that if the
center is over, lets say, the rear where the ladder is, than you could
possibly strap a 30 or so foot telescoping mast to the ladder to push up the
center of the G5. By using a fiberglass mast there wouldn't be any
interaction with the ladder line coming down from the G5.
Just thinking out loud.
