This type of balun is to be found in most textbooks & many aerial designs. It
is a 1:1 balun & does not alter the impedance.
Balun is made from ¬ wave lengths of scrap coax (longer needed to cover the
fatter outer) braid or pipe over the top of the feeder. It is electrically
connected to the coax braid 1/4 wave from the balanced feeder connections.

This works by hiding the unbalanced outer aerial connections from the outside
world so it can't radiate.
In practice I recommend heatshrink sleeving & heat glue it used to seal the add
outer section.
Common mode Z is only high at the resonant frequency, where it eliminates any
outer feeder current on the unbalanced coax.
