Perfect lot for a G5RV. My lot is about the same with tree's in the front and back. Mine is hung between a front tree and a back tree. Power lines are in the front only a few feet from the end of my G5RV No problem with it. It's up 30 ft and works great in all directions tunes all bands with the K-2 tuner. Seems to work both long and short distance. It's 102 ft long. Easy to make but mine is from antennasmore. Has survived multiple wind storms 60 MPH winds. Jay KC9EUH FP 750 FISTS 5344

A little progress was made by adding one radial, which made my TT 253 happy on 20m. The K2 and TT tuner are indicating consistent forward power 10m - 80m and low SWR. I would like to maximize the efficiency of this antenna for multi band use. I am on a 60 x 160 lot, in Dallas, with the shack located in the back corner with a large tree in the front and back that are 100' apart with the 125' EFHWA strung between. Our antenna height is restricted to 35'. Utility lines are locted in the alley along the back. I have a 17m moxon mounted to the roof of the house which is in the middle of the lot. I can change the length, grounding, or add radials along the property edge, but the height is restricted.
