You may also find this picture of a 1:1 guanella balun of interest.
Notice the "crossover" which alters the direction of the common winding

There ya go.
One of the problems of breaking up the path to ground on the shield is that
now static can build up. If you can provide a way to bleed off the charges
that build up on both halves, while breaking up the shield currents, now you
have made it worthwhile. But when you guys start discussing off center fed
dipoles, I step aside. I have computers in the shack. I have better luck
with fan dipoles. Also running a Butternut vertical. Works a lot better
than a 4btv, but a pain to get it right on all bands.

Thanks

Also liked the other pdfs presented. I never have time to read them all
because of constant interruption around here. Back to work.
