 If you're a purist, a simple L-network at the base will 
 transform whatever impedance you have to exactly 50 ohms.  L-networks of

 Tuners, begone!  :-)

In what world does an "L network" not equal exactly what a tuner does 
for a wire antenna?  An autotuner is nothing more than a binary 
incremented L Network with autofeedback of directional power, and phase. 
You suggestion is the same thing with no feedback or incremental changes.
