Besides it being easier to find a certified protector for 50 ohm coax,  a
resonant dipole or a fan dipole fed with coax will have a nicer pattern and
perform better than the W7FG dipole with ladder line on non-resonant
frequencies.

And, as noted, they won't work for your chosen antenna, for the reasons 
noted. You should probably pursue one or more of the options for 
antennas that are relatively well matched to coax on their operating 
frequencies.
