Don,

Okay, that's as I suspected.  It makes sense to me that the tuner could
resonate the antenna-feedline system, but that the currents may remain
unbalanced.  One of my antennas is a quad fed with open line, and such
operation would probably skew the directivity.  I think I'll stick with my
baluns....

Thanks,
Parker

The result is that 
power may be delivered to the antenna but the feedline will be radiating and

the pattern from the antenna is unknown.

That's the short answer ... I await the many antenna experts on the list to 
embellish it.
