1:1 current balun has proven more efficient in conjunction with the
appropriate balanced (matchbox style)tuner.

Jim...

Is there anything to be gained in putting a 1:1 "balanced isolator" at the
feed point of an antenna that is fed by a "parallel wire" feed line? Does
such an arrangement achieve feed line isolation while preserving the ability
of such an antenna to be driven on various bands other than its resonant
frequency? Thanks for your input.
