Kamikaze,
My sentiments about the G5RV are about the same, but that's what was available at the time. The parallel feed line idea is what I have suggested, but the problem is running that feed line how it would have to be run. All things considered, the feed line will be coax. The frequencies to be used will be between 160 and 80 meters. That's pretty well going to be sort of different for some of our people, they are mostly VHF hams, if that makes sense. Letting them find out for them selves typically works 'best', sort of. Oh well, what else is new?
