I also have one of those KW matchboxes (it's not for sale) and in past years used coax fed dipoles, but they/it does not tune the frequencies I need to tune, MARS 4.5 Mhz, 3.3 Mhz etc.  I know I can cut feedline or lengthen it, I've already wasted a bunch of feedline and time doing just that.  The Palstar BT1500 tunes the frequencies I need to tune and better after I added the choke balun.  The balun I installed at the recommendation of Paul at Palstar did work.  Regardless if it's proper or not makes no difference to me, it worked  and that's ALL that matters.

These are antennas we are talking about. If it works as in transfers 
power efficiently and doesn't wipe out anything with RFI then "it's proper".
