I'm looking to replace my "wire-in-a-tree" antenna I use at my cottage with
something a little more substantial.  I have about 129 feet to work with and
was looking at a Carolina Windom "Short" 80 ($120) from The Radio Works
(www.radioworks.com).  Can anyone comment on this antenna, or have a
suggestion on a good 80-10 meter antenna.  I was also wondering how much of
an impact it would have if the antenna did contact a few branches/leaves.
My home QTH antenna is a G5RV, radio is a QRP K2 with tuner.

Thanks,
