I'd buy a tuner that will handle open wire feed, lose the 4:1 balun,
and get on the air.

That's exactly what I use.

130 feet long center fed doublet with 600 ohm open wire tuned feeders.

Tuner is an OLD [30+ years] MURCH UT2000A with a balun.

Runs great on 75/80, 60, 40, 30, 20 meters.

I have used a LP for 20-10 meters. It is currently down as a result of QTH
change and limited $$$.
