Paul, twisting or transposing the line is done in an effort to minimize unbalance introduced by nearby objects. It is common practice to twist the plastic ladderline - about 1 or 2 twists per foot -

I always thought twisting the feedline was to cancel radiation from the transmission line. A poem appeared in QST in the late 50's. It went: Feedline going up the wall, Please don't radiate at all; F

Most all of the commercially available tuners on the market today use the 'T' match with a Balun on the output for balanced feeders. This design was made popular by Lew McCoy in a QST article about 3

Sherrill, the 238 is basicly a L tunner. It can be reversed to match either high impedance or low impedance. There is a extra coil to extend the range that make a limited T tunner at higher frequenci

As I understand it, the tuner problem is not because it is a T or an L network type. The problem is because the balun is feeding power into a high reflected wave (swr). Moving the balun to the input
