Does this antenna require a Balun, if so, would the balun be a 1:1, or something else?

No it does not need a balun. It comes with a 9:1 unun. This should match the typical 50 ohm transceiver output impedance. However, an antenna tuner is probably a good idea.

this antenna came with 137 ft of wire. how long should the counterpoise wire be?

If you are expanding the meter range, the opposing wire should be equal. Hope this helps some.

Does this include the U bolts to mount to a mast?

No U-bolts were included. The unun box is very lightweight, so I just suspended it from the mast with a short piece of rope, so that it has a little more room to move a bit when the wind blows. If you need to secure it with U-bolts, the mounting holes are 1 - 11/16 inches apart on center.

In the details it’s stated the antenna is 32 feet but then in the description there is this Length: 20m/64 ft … so which is it??

There were two Taurus End Fed Antennas offered thru Amazon. An 80M-6M being the 64 footer and an 80M-10M at 32 feet. I have not been able to find the 80/10 in Amazon any longer which is to bad because it is a nice antenna. I Have it mounted horizontal at 20 feet with 30 feet of coax and using Xiegu G90 have talked coast to coast, thru the south and into the far reaches of Canada. I have listened to European stations but have not tried any DX work. I am going to swap out the 80/10 to the 80/6 and use the 80/10 for POTA work. I'm very impressed with this antenna and I'm sure the 64 footer will work equally as well.
