I HATE use of the word "balun," because it is used to describe at least
six very different things.  A so-called "current balun"" is really
nothing more than a common mode choke.  The chokes I've described in my
tutorial and cookbook are simply much better (and cheaper) common mode
chokes than you can buy for a lot more money.

As Don says, study the tutorial.
