Default Parallel coax

I use a short vertical antenna that has a low feedpoint impedance.

Would there be any advantage to running two parallel 50 ohm coax to
reduce losses to the shack tuner?


If your antenna is 25+j0, paralleling two 50 ohm coax lines would reduce
the SWR from 2:1 to 1:1.

Is that what you want to know?
