Because you cant run 50 ohm output to a 450 ohm impedeance...........


The chances of your balun seeing a 450-ohm impedance in the
configuration you are planing to use is right up there with wining the
state lottery.

What is important is the balun's choking impedance (that's the one
that blocks the common mode current) not its differential impedance.

I suggest you get a copy of TL Details
http://www.qsl.net/ac6la/tldetails.html
and check out just how much variation in impedance you balun will be
seeing.
