An antenna question re ten meters
I currently have a G5RV, which I use with a tuner, for 80-10. (I also
have better ten meter antennas)
Question is: the G5RV is fed with 32 ft or so of 300 ohm twin lead,
then goes to coax... to a tuner.
Loads and works poorly on ten and thirty meters.
Would I be better to use all twin lead, ( a dipole fed with twin lead, in
effect) into a tuner... for all band use? Would I notice any real
difference?
I assume it would load better on ten , and thirty meters,,, but,,, would my
signal actually be any different,,, or, would it hear any better than the
G5RV?
Thanks... Bob in AZ
