Default 2 x 4 to 1 voltage balun in series
In article ,

Hi

can someone explain how to connect 2 voltage 4:1 baluns in series to
achieve 16:1

Thanks

Bit of update

finished the antenna and got it up and running yesterday, the only HF
gear I have ATM is a 27MHz SSB Cb radio (12 watt), got 1.5-1.6/SWR, so I
guess is working ?:-) (lot of thanks for those who helped)

I was lucky to find 2mm(SQ) tinned wire Insulated, I made the resistor
out of 20 x 18k CF 1w resistor soldered in parallel.
my next question is how much power this antenna can or should handle?
I was thinking somewhere around 20 watts ?
