Forgot to mention, I was going to connect the conductors on the far end so
as to have a longer single line. One side of the near end would be hanging
out in space, in other words, so as not to form a loop.

So, a matching transformer is all I need? I have pretty much decided to
use
300 ohm twinlead along the rood ridge with a 300/75 ohm matching
transformer
to connect it to the coax, and more as needed between the coax and radio.
Will that honestly work?

Thanks,

Dave

It's an impedance matching transformer or unun. I use the word 'balun'
because most people haven't heard the term 'unun'.

Look for matching transformer.

Away from the house is not possible. Even if it was, that would put
it
near
the power lines. How would I build a balun? (Websites/links?)
