Does anyone still use a folded dipole with an appropriate impedance

old monoband basic folded dipole, that many operators used 50 years
ago. ???


Most hams use a 4:1 balun with a folded dipole instead of the more
complicated 6:1 balun. "300 ohm" window line usually has a Z0 less
than 300 ohms. The stuff I have is about 275 ohms.
