In addition, the use of tuned feeders would give you
two half waves in phase on 40m for some gain, if
this matters to you.

Hi Paul,
I would seriously consider #14 450 ohm ladder line. Not only for the
weight issue but for minimizing the loss for such a long run.
Balanced feed works great !
Good luck & 73, Les, W�OJH
