I have a Carolina Windom up at about 35 feet as an inverted Vee.  I 
only use it on 80, 40, and 30.  It works reasonably well, but I keep 
thinking a vertical would do better for DXing.  I had a G5RV up for a 
while and I think the Carolina Windom is at least as good and 
probably a little better.

73,

Dave, W7Oq
