Hi Dave
I am new to all this. I have heard that the tuner might have problems
tunning on all bands if I don't use a 4:1 balun.
Are you saying that I don't need a balun just a choke?
What sort of choke would you reccomend buying for the job?
From the ARRL Antenna Book, for a 3.5-30 mhz choke, coil a 10 foot
section of coax into 7 turns, and tape them together rope-style (this
is for rg-8, 58, 59, 8x or 213).

Can anyone tell me what is the best 4:1 balun to use with a wire dipole
configuration a voltage or current balun?
I want to be able to tune with the FT-1000 MKV Field internal tuner.
Thanks
Andy
a 4:1 for a dipole?? all you need is a simple choke, especially if you
are
going to have a tuner anyway.
