In addition, Reg was designing in the era of valve output transmitters with
built-in pi-tank matching system, so, it was possible to match on different
bands. I'm sure mine worked across 80 to 10m in those days. For 80 to 10m
these days I use a off-centre-fed dipole with hybrid choke/transformer at the
feed point as designed by DJ0IP for minimum common mode current.

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!
