Michalkun,

If you are going to 'use' a "Balanced FeedLine" (300 Ohm Twin Lead or
450 Ohm Ladder Line) and connect this FeedLine directly into the
radio/receivers HI-Z Terminals then you do not need a BalUn.

However, if you wish to use Coax Cable as a 'feedline' from the
antenna to the radio's LO-Z Antenna Connector; then some form of
matching transformer should be used to get the best results from your
dipole antenna.

Is it true that if you feed a dipole in the middle you don't need a balun?
