Hi all: 

Anyone have any experience with the antenna referenced? 
This is one of my possibilities as my rig's tuner has no problems matching my current homebrewed version. I am a little concerned that my rig would have troubling matching the G5RV and although I could employ a manual tuner, it wouldn't do for a remote operation as I'm mostly operating. 
The CW-80 is on sale right now for 119US and with the canadian dollar where it is, might be a gd time to jump on it. The DXB sells for 115CAN at Radio World in Toronto and I think the windom is a better performing antenna. 
I'm particularly interested in the Radio Works model due to its vertical 22 foot radiator, interested if there's any real performance differences.
