    Yeah, I can see why you thought I was yet another complainer. My point was that hopefully the FCC nails them. Fortunately, the bands are dominated by highly intelligent, rule obeying operators, who are a pleasure to communicate with.

    Geeze, you guys are something else. I only posted it so others could hear how ridiculous those guys were talking. I wasn't complaining or indicating that I couldn't take it or anything like that. Of course I know enough to move on. This aint my first rodeo either.

    G5RV Orientation

    Mine runs NE-SW at a height of 9.144 m. (The ladder line which runs verticaly from the intersection of the two poles is 30' (9.144 m) to the balan.) Works equally well in any direction. I eventually would like to move it further away from the house though.
