I use the KAT2 and BL2 with 2 different antennas.  One is the Cobra Ultralite
(www.k1jek.com) and the other is a 40 meter inverted Vee fed with 300-ohm
twinlead.  The tuner/balun has been able to match the first antenna on 160
to 10 and the second antenna on 40 to 10 (and even 80 but I never use it
there).  The balun has always stayed in the 4 to 1 position. I try to keep
the piece of coax from the balun to the rig as short as possible, and
sometimes use the male-to-male BNC adaptor that Elecraft sells.
