Hello all,

I have a 746Pro with a G5RV and use the internal tuner on bands 80 thru 6! 
I have the G5RV as a flat top, which is what it was designed for, I think. 
Flat top with the feed line hanging straight down.  I love this antenna and, 
as I said, it tunes the above bands down to SWR of 1.5 or below with the 
internal tuner on the 746Pro.  I don't know why mine works and others have 
the high SWR problems.

73,
Don AE6VV
