One of the things that has been hinted at is the OCF dipole. One of the really
great attributes is that you can adjust the matching impedance of the antenna
by moving the feed point away from center. If you have a SWR of 1.5:1 and the
R is 75 and the j is 0, move the feed point away from center and you can find
75 ohms. Of course you will have to address the 75 ohm, but the match will be
1:1.

Subject: Re: [Elecraft] Slightly Unbalanced dipole?
A friend once told me, "Almost none of us has a balanced dipole."
What he meant is, few of us are lucky enough to be able to put a dipole
high up and completely in the clear - most of us have to put it up where we
can, and one side will be closer to houses, trees, gutters, chain link
fences..... than the other.
Probably true!
