Default Feed to a folded dipole.

Hi

I'm anticipating converting my coax fed, ninety foot long, folded
terminated dipole to a ladder line fed folded dipole, without a
terminating resister, fed using an Icom AH-4 antenna coupler. Am I
correct in believing that the best ladder line to use for that purpose
would be the 300 Ohm type to match the nominal impedance of the folded
dipole itself.
