Balun Construction :: Did I do this right?

wrote: Yes, the balun is a 4:1 voltage type. I have not measured the common mode inductance yet. But in this case, the application is for a Carolina Windom which requires common mode current to make part of the feedline act as a radiator. The feedline will be choked with a 1:1 current balun at the proper distance. That is next on the list to be built. --Teh Okay, then in that case be sure to check the common mode impedance on your current balun. Many are less than 1K and, for good operation you'll need more than that. The higher the better. Danny, K6MHE |
