Hi Fritts:
Yes you can do that, why not? I would try and keep the coax run as short as
possible because with a center feed zepp on most frequencies the SWR on the
coax will be very high and the extra loss from the high SWR will eat up some
of you power.

In reference to the discussion about the fellow wanting to run several
antennas with seperate ladder lines, is it ok to terminate the ladder
line with a 4:1 balun and the run the coax from the balun to the
tuner? I also want to run at least two center fed zepp type antennas
fed with ladder line. Can I just terminate the ladder lines outside
with a 4:1 balun on each and run two coax feed lines to an antenna
switch inside the house?
I hope I am making myself clear on this.
Thanks
