What is a "bazooka 1/4-wave balun" ?  
An article I'm reading makes reference to using a "balun... or even better, a 
bazooka 1/4-wave balun" at the feedpoint of a quad element, using a 50-ohm coax 
feedline. 
Is this a 1:1 balun? 
Is a "bazooka balun" better than a balun? If so, why? and where can I get info 
on building one?
