Jim,
A lossy balun will provide a good match - just the same as a dummy load
resistor provides a good match (that is a near 100% loss if you are
considering the radiation capability).
Everything that loads does not make a good radiator.

I have tried a 6:1 balun at the feed point of the inverted L. How ever it
presents a significant loss while QRP with 5 W. Just does not have enough
isolation from ground. yet it presents a good match. Go figure.
