As I've already stated … I have a copy of the original Varney
RSGB article that describes the G5RV and plainly states that
it's a 20M only antenna.

Remember, it requires an antenna tuner …

Start with a dipole …

Keep the "magic" 32' length of 300 ohm feedline.

Delete the 68' of coax.

What's left?  A "normal" open wire fed dipole, better
known as a Zepp.

73!
