For shirt verticals with a low impedance I use a step-up balun, but
again it seems to work better when the X is not the problem, but tehe
R. WB6ZQZ makes a kit.

But, if the 4:1 balun is looking into an antenna or feed line with a

SWR the impedance it's driving might be very low, perhaps only a few
ohms.
If the 4:1 balun can handle it at all, it'll divide that impedance by
four
again, making it a very tough match for most tuners.
