Well the balun checks out as a voltage type and I have been believing it was a current type.  I did the ohm meter check on the coax and it showed a dc short across the coax.  I suppose given the symmetry of an A3S a voltage type is fine although I really had preferred to put a current type up there.  Anyone ever take one of these apart?  How is it constructed?  What materials used?  I can't seem to find any information on the web about it.  I did use a solder gun to make the connections to my hook up wires from the lugs under the eye bolts and no problem yet after being in the air for the past 3 months.
