Dipole Ant

[Glen Zook]

Technically a dipole should work better with a balun.
In the "real world" you cannot usually tell the
difference.  Sometimes the balun seems to cause
problems and sometimes not.

Amateurs have been feeding a dipole directly with
coaxial cable for many decades.

Dumb Qestion, I've been using a Balun for a Center Fed
40 meter Dipole and 52ohm Coax. Question is, I do'nt
think I need the Balun when using 52 ohm Coax. Correct?
