Your First problem is that you went to a CB group to ask that kind of
question. What were you thinking? You will have to match the antenna
to bring the feed down to 50 ohms. With a properly matched antenna you
should get the full 4 watt legal limit on 11 meters.

Note too the dipole will need to be slightly shorter to use on 10m than on
11m, but you probably knew that already.

Cut it for a multiple of 1/2 wavelengths.... Use type "f" connectors
and adaptors to uhf or whatever you want to use....

When the transmission line is cut for a multiple of 1/2 wavelength for a
particular frequency, you can put 100 ohms at one end and it will see
the exact impedance at the other end....

I use it on a 40/20 meter cross dipole and it works great and has very
low loss...
