A solenoid winding made of coax is more effective then those 4 wraps.
I use SCF12-50 Cellfex to wind my choke baluns.
30 turns on a pvc tube of 4-5" diameter do the trick (2000 ohms at 14MHz).

## coiled up coax is not the answer either, the Z is too low. Like
gerald sez,
the wire leads on the baluns output is part of the total DE ele length.
So if using coax... factor that in...and make the Y the correct length.
## 4 wraps of 213 U around 4 x 2.4 inch OD type 31 ferrite will do
the trick
for a balun....
