I am also using a 135 foot dipole  (about 25 feet high--zoning 
restrictions) fed with about 35 feet of ladder line to a Johnson KW 
Matchbox.

When you say "1:1, anywhere, any band", is this with your Johnson tuner 
or your homebrew? If  with the Johnson, can you please give me any tips 
on how you get the Johnson to work on 30 meters?
