You will find that center fed dipoles are rarely balanced and even if
they were, coax is unbalance, So the good old choke in Jim's tutorial
should be a good idea. The RFI tutorial shows how many cores, the type
of material for the cores, and how many turns to wind your own.

What would be the bestest design for choke or balun to be used with dipole

Like what type of core, number of turns or number of beads?
I need an antenna for 30m band, and my very first intention was to go with
simple dipole.
Next idea was to put OCF dipole to use in on more than one band :)
So far, for a regular dipole, I came up with "1:1 Ruthroff voltage balun
design" described in http://vk6ysf.com/balun_1-1.htm page.
OCF is what I got stuck with...
I know that OCF dipoles need something more than just a balun...
What should I use?
A bunch of beads over the coax? Some balun + beads?
