I am now measuring through the
4:1 current balun in my MFJ tuner. Wish I had a 1:1.

Most tuner baluns are voltage baluns. What you need
is a 1:1 current balun with a choking impedance of
a few thousand ohms. That is generally the balun of
choice when the impedances are unknown.

The manual speciffically calls it a "current" balun Cecil. Doesn't
make it so. I need to look inside and determine how its wound. Most
4:1 current balun configurations I've seen use two toroids.

Thanks and 73s.
