Topband: Dipole/remote tuner

[jcjacobsen]

Looking for input from the collective knowledge of the reflector.


You have a wire dipole for 75 meters fed with a 1:1/5K rated balun. You want to transition to a remote tuner so you can move around 75/80 meters. 


The question is: Do you leave the balun in place, or remove it and feed the dipole directly from the remote tuner? We have mixed answers from the local "Population". That's why I'm coming to the reflector.


Please, don't be critical and ask questions like: what gauge wire, bare of covered wire, How high, yada yada yada, 


That's all. Thanks in advance.
