Haven't made a K1JJ tuner, yet, but i have removed the fan dipole in favor of an 80 meters doublet. I used what I have on hand to feed it, the two baluns in this thread, and some new 300 Ohm twin lead i had in the attic. I haven't had time to work it the way I want, and I want to raise the ends up higher so it is less an inverted wire, but initially it seems to be preferred to the fan dipole - 2 wires instead of 8, and anyone I've called hears me with < 100 watts.
Time will tell...
