Default Isn't my antenna a balun, or would that be UnUn?

My antenna seems to match the impedance of my transmission line (50 ohms) to
the impedance of the either (370 some-odd-ohms), isn't that a balun?

Regards,
John

Well, since no one answered my post, I think I am going to toss this darn
balun away and get a "real" antenna...

Trouble is, trying to find one which doesn't think it is a tuneable
balun!!!!

Regards,
John

Hehe! Actually, John, I am posting to see if you could include a few
lines at least of the msg you are responding to.

I enjoy your posts, but I don't always know what they are about! 8^)

Mike:

Sorry. In another newsgroup, they were giveing me a bad time about "top
posting" (putting my text above the quoted text I am responding to.) So, I
shut down the feature all-together... I forgot to turn it back on after
having made the point...

Warmest regards,
John

Hey, keep up the top posting. I don't need to read the same message 27
times.

John, expecting an answer during the time from midnight to
1.5 hours later might be a tad delusional.

"John" always gets prompt responses to his (her) posts....even if he
(she) has to do it him(her)self.

That's why he (she) often doesn't include any quoted text. He (she)
knows what he (she) said, so why bother repeating him(her)self?

You forgot to include "it" in the "he (she)" nomenclature.

How do you think a contraction like "he****"
for he/she/it would go over?
