Angry Any GOOD balun's out there?

After getting more information on my reception problem, I'm now looking for a replacement balun. I did review the information here on TVfool, Rabbit73 did provide the best information on describing the workings and his recommendation to shorten the input lead length to 2 1/2 inches Etc. I did a search for the CM 94444 just to find out they drop out very quickly from ch 50 on up. The old style 94444 with the straight leads are NLA anywhere! moving onto option #2 CM 3203 these also are NLA and out of production.
Has anyone come up with a GOOD replacement (signal wise) balun that will work/last outdoors???

Thanks

That should not be an issue after the station repack...no longer any stations that high up in the band.
