Hey, thanks a lot, Steve!!!

I know that the G5RV in its current configuration is no great shakes, but it 
does seem to get out at least somewhat. ...  Better than the screw-driver, 
of course.



As I think I said in an earlier post, I'll probably leave it as it is for 
the remainder of this camping season, but may try to get it up higher next 
year when we are out there for camping season again.
