Fellow Elecrafters,

I am putting up a 135 ft flat-top at my QTH.  I'll be feeding it with 
about 60 ft. of 450 ohm ladder line, connecting the feedline to the BL2, 
and tuning it with the KAT2.

I was wondering if anyone on the list has tried this arrangement and 
could comment on whether the KAT2 will have any problems tuning this 
setup from 80 - 20m.  I'm also curious about which bands work better 
with the balun set to 1:1 vs. 4:1 with this setup.

Thanks,

Zac Brown
