[TowerTalk] Ugly Baun

[Russ Dearmore]

I've been using the ugly balun for several years now ever since frying my older one and have been pleased and was wondering what others thought of them.  I'm a day away from the big pour and will raise the new TX-472 in about 30 days, and thought of maybe trying another balun since I'll be experimenting anyway.  For awhile I'll just keep using my TGM MQ-26, (10, 12, 15, 17 and 20) to see how raising it from 32' to 82' will affect results.  Later I'll probably put a 20M M Squared 3 element mono at about 73 feet or 9' below it, since I'm seeking a broader bandwidth on 20m for contesting.  So any recommendations on a different balun?
