Everyone makes fun of newbies buying ready-built dipoles on eBay, but nobody can direct you to where to buy baluns? Searched hi and lo online, and what I found, was more expensive than buying a ready-made dipole! I'd like to buy a balun, and attach my own cut-to-length wire, but can't find cheap baluns ANYWHERE. Where are you Elmers buying your baluns? Here are diagrams of one type of balun which will server you well: http://assemblywizard.fr33webhost.com/balun1.jpg http://assemblywizard.fr33webhost.com/balun2.jpg You will need to pick the proper material you need for the core, and compute the turns necessary for the freqs in question (lowest freq will determine these), there are abundant design pages on the web ... google is your friend.
