Yes, there is. In my case I have an un-un between my trcx and the tuner. That way I keep the RF away from the radio equipment. I leave the tuner, a manual one, floating. As a second measure I make sure to ground the coax between the un-un and the radio really well.

I've always wondered about the OCF and ladder line,

With both legs being different length, wouldn't there be an unbalance in 
the feedline?  73
