[TenTec] 4229 Tuner Balun Replacement?

[Richards]

Apropos our previous discussion of "choke baluns"...

I believe the locution "choke balun" is often used to refer to various 
forms of chokes - sometimes made of ferrite beads and sometimes made of 
round ferrite toroids.  I presume you are talking about the more 
traditional and more robust "balun" (transformer) designs which employ 
large, round ferrite toroids - and not the so called  "choke baluns" 
comprised of a series of ferrite beads along a stretch of coax.

Yes ?  As I recall, the consensus was decidedly in favor of the one type 
over the other in terms of overall utility.
