Chris,
I respectfully disagree. A good current balun or a balanced tuner will
cure any common mode noise that may be present on the feedline.
Of course the real 'secret' is to run the feedline away from the antenna
at a 90 degree angle and support the feedline away from conducting
surfaces - if done properly, common mode pickup will not be a problem.

not an issue for you ... fine. But if it is...
