I used a folded dipole on 15 and 40 from 1992-2000 when I moved to a much
larger lot.
I used mine with a Johnson Matchbox, so I did not need a 6:1 balun.

Does anyone still use a folded dipole with an appropriate impedance matching
balun today? Not the broadband type that B & W sells, but the old monoband
basic folded dipole, that many operators used 50 years ago. ???
