    Tom:

My G5RV is a coax-type, I believe.  In other words, the ladder line comes 
down to a small piece of coax, with a PL259 on the end.

Also, I believe my ground situation at the RV is pretty good.  I have a 
ground to the bumper, and to the chassis of the RV, and all of that is 
coupled  to the shield of the PL259 connector at the back of the RV, to 
which I can connect an antenna.
