Plant trees and wait a few years. In the meantime plant utility
poles, or use aluminum tubing masts or fibreglass masting, either of
which will require guys. Flag poles also work well. ARRL handbooks and
antenna books show an A frame mast that will go to 30 feet, made from
2x2 and 2x3 lumber. It too will need to be guyed.
The main question to ask is will the G5RV work that much better with the
ends at 30-40 feet than at 15 feet? I seriously doubt he would notice
much difference. 73 bob de w9ge
