Default Cecil, was it you that mention a "windom balun?"



Even worse than that! A lot will only consider the loss in the
transmitted signal of such an antenna, perhaps even call it "trivial."
However, the received signal will suffer from exactly the same losses
... while even losing 500 watts of a 1KW signal can be considered
"trivial", losing 50% of ones received signal is NOT!

3dB is still only 3dB regardless of where it happens in the link budget!!
