I'm thinking of building an OCF, and would like some user feedback 
before I start this project. This will be a homebrew effort. Here is 
some of the info I would like to hear about.

1. What balun did you use (4:1 6:1)

2. How far from the short end did you place the balun.

3. 2:1 SWR points without needing a tuner.

4. Did it perform as expected.

I've read some articles, there are 2 really excellent ones at the ARRL 
website.

Any and all comments are appreciated. Thanks   73
