Good evening, all.

With no reply from Alpha Delta to my enquiry regarding the benfits of adding
a balun to a stock installation of their DX-SWL Shortwave Sloper Antenna, I
ask of you the same question... is this a no-brainer? Shuild I be injecting
a ~10:1 balun in order to maximize efficiency?

Please explain just why you think adding a 10:1 balun would 'maximize
efficiency' of this particular antenna.

I'd be interested in the theory behind this.
