I just purchased a Windom (80 - 10 version, 132') from Antennas and 
More - (www.antennasmore.com), and it is a real killer.  I am getting 
great reports on 80, 40, 20, and they are all without a tuner. In 
fact, it loads up on 20 better with out a tuner, than if you put a 
tuner in the line. Mine is about 35' above the ground.  Price - $122 
with shipping. They have G5RVs also, but I agree with Ken that the 
Windom is a better aerial.

My two cents,

Brian - W5YE
