Default Build your dipoles with 300 Ohm twinlead

Make Folded Dipoles and use a CATV balun backwards at the feedpoint.
Then you can use plain old RG-6 and F-Splitters. Not only is this
incredibly cheap, the entire antenna system is at DC ground*.
Caution, do not use Baluns with little capacitor inside.

*Use an F Grounding Block where the coax enters the house. And a
drip loop.
