Agreed Jim, and nice to hear from u.

1. Yes Jim, spot on, you need a 1:1 balun (50 Ohms unbalanced co-ax in - 50
Ohms balanced twin out), not a 4:1 (which I think is for feeding folded
dipoles, but correct me if I'm wrong).

2. A 1kW Balun for 20 bux. I believe you...we often refer to our country as
"rip-off Britain". Tourists notice that prices for the same item are about
the same number of dollars as pounds. USA tourists to the UK don't
understand why we put up with it.
I'll post-up some UK rig prices from Radcom and you can compare them with
the prices in QST.
