Default Selecting toroids for HF use...

The Philips cores that you are referring to were probably manufactured
by Ferroxcube (Philips has sold the company to Yaego). You can find
data and a handbook at http://www.ferroxcube.com/

If you want a useful ham program (free) for designing with Ferroxcube,
Amidon, Epcos and air cores download "mini-RC Calculator" from
http://www.dl5swb.de/html/software_f...teur_radio.htm

Fair-rite (ferrite manufacturer) has a distributor in your country -
Turkey and they can be contacted at http://www.aktif-neser.com/

Thanks for the answers.. I already didn't say that i needed one exact
type. They will be used in HF transceiver projects(ie. VFO's, mixers,
BPF's and everything). I think that a toroid like T-50-2 would be
useful for many applications like those. As i said above i only have
access to Philips cores and i can't find a catalog to choose from. I
did a search on the net but didn't come accross anything handy. So if
any of you have used Philips cores in your applications i would like to
know what types do you use and what equivalents are out there for known
brands such as Amidon, CWS etc.

Thanks...
