Default how to check balun

Roy forgot to mention / stress that a balun is designed for specific
impedances. If it is a common 1:1 balun, then it is probably designed for
50 ohms. They are designed for feeding a 1/2 wave dipole or similar
antenna, not widely different (from 50) impedances.

Wow! Good info, Roy. Thanks. That should get me going, at least.
