If you are looking for a high efficiency antenna system, low swr on long runs of coaxial cable is critical. The only way to accomplish this on a wide band basis is to provide a 50 ohm non-reactive load for your 50 ohm coaxial cable.
Some sort of tuning is needed at the antenna end of the coax. I developed "StepperTune" to control an ATU remotely. Tuning a loop is also applicable with StepperTune.
