Actually, anything other than a balanced tuner is basically useless.  Coax 
fed antennas should be impedance matched to the coax at the antenna.  
Matching the coax to the transmitter in the shack doesn't do a thing for the 
performance of the coax or antenna.  It simply accomodates today's low range 
transmitter output circuits. And today's commercial unbalanced tuners using 
baluns to accomodate balanced lines are inefficient.   That leaves us 
homebrewing balanced tuners.  In my view, that's the only way to go.
