On a positive note, the extended double zepp antenna with a 450 ohm
matching section down to a 1:1 balun and then 50 ohm coax is a solid
performer, and it consistently out performs a dipole and the Lazy H
broadside to the antenna.

You are "matching" 450 ohm line to 50 ohm coax thru a 1:1 balun?

Where is the matchbox/tuner located?


Never mind, should have read your post closer, you are claiming to have
already handled it in the "450 ohm matching section."
