Would adding a coax balun (a few turns of coax by the feedpoint)
improve performance in any way?

Mike asks

Are you sure you are not asking about a "choke" and not a bulun?  Some
radio may benefit from a choke.  I have to run a 4" x 3 turn choke at
the feedpoint of my KB6KQ loop with the FT-100 but no other radio I
have needs it.
