[TowerTalk] Force 12 B-1/B-1S Baluns

[Dan Hearn]

Mark, IMO the power dissipated in the Balun will be related to the coax
termination impedance at the antenna. If it sees 50 ohms then there will be
little current coming back down the shield outer . Check your antenna
feedpoint Z at any frequencies you plan to operate.
  Of course, the "Balun" is really a line choke.
