[bars] Cobra Ultralite Balun

[Jason M. Sanroma - K1NAD]

Hello,

I have a Cobra Ultralite Senior. It is approximately 105 feet up in my pine
trees. When the ladder line comes down, it goes through a porcelain
insulator and then through a slit of wood in the eave of the house. My
grandfather believes the VSWR is affected by its contact with the wood.

I was wondering if I should add a balun and run coax into the house instead
of the feedline? Does anyone have recommendations for the Cobralite antenna
balun?

I have attached a few pictures to explain what I am writing about.

Thanks.

73,
Jason
