Hello,

It should work fine on any bands at that height as used to run one around
that height before and didn't have any problems on any bands.

In fact am using a home built g5rv that built myself up about 30 to 35 feet
and works great on all bands using an internal tuner with my TS440S.

Tnx cul 73 nr4dr

Subject: g5rv antenna.


I'm thinking of putting up my g5rv antenna, but only can put the center up
about 25 feet and the ends about 10 feet.  Will this be much use on
anything but 10 meters?  I understand that it should be a full wave length
elevation, but have no way of putting it up that high without installing
supports.  I've moved to the San Diego County coast, close to the ocean,
1/2 mile, and would like to work Australia.  I have a Cushcraft R7, but
would need to buyt a new mast. Thanks for your opinions.
