Jack,
You may have a misconception about impedance here. Making the antenna
resonant is not going to make it 50 Ohms. Extrapolating your numbers, it
looks like resonance would be at around 6.9 MHz, and give you an impedance
of something like 12 + j0. Might be a good match to a 1:4 (not 4:1) balun,
but you would have to see what happens on the other bands.

Just a silly thought: If he made it resonant and had, indeed, 12
ohms, couldn't he make it into a folded dipole giving 12x4=48
ohms and probably a better bandwidth? (Of course this is assuming
monoband operation)

Oops,

Just read in a previous post he is using a fan dipole. Don't
think it is possible to use the folded dipole then.
