Try the LIM device. I have used it for 2 years and it works well on all
frequencies.

I've just replaced my old cable with some nice shiney new 50ohm coax
attached directly to my 100+ feet of longwire. As I still want to suck
that little extra out of my antenna, I want to add a balun but I am
confused with this transformer ratio stuff. I realise that a long wire
has quite a high impedance. However, should I go for a 1:4 or a 1:10
ratio balun. If I went for the 1:10 would it be overkill and will it make
any difference over the RF if I only had a 1:4. I ask because I can get a
1:10 a lot cheaper than a 1:4.

Confused? I am
