Pete, Brian and all,
The BL2 *is* a current choke 'balun' - both in the 4:1 and the 1:1
configuration.

Try a current choke 'balun' instead of the BL2.
As a temporary antenna I have 25m of twin speaker wire run out from
the shack under the roof tiles - that's about 7m - and then the
remaining 18m split as a doublet. It hangs at an average height of 5m
from a couple of trees. The 'feeder' end connects through a current
choke on a short piece of RG58 to the KAT3 in my K3. The KAT100 has
the same matching range as the KAT3 and I assume the LC values are the
similar.
