Bob brings up an interesting point. The many "balanced" antennas are not
quite so. Even worse, Charlie Lofgren (Charlie Tuner to the guys at the
Zuni Loop Field Day Group :-) did some tests on common "balanced" tuners
to find that they were not quite so either. I recall he said the
Harvey-Wells Z match was not so balanced as you would think. I don't
recall if he tested the Johnson matchbox. Funny stuff, eh?
