I don't know why? *But, I seem to remember you asking or something about
windom baluns ... or, maybe I just have to worry about being a maroon
idiot with an imagination!

Darn, I just hate that reference to "purplish" though ... purple is a
homosexual symbol here, at least in California, bad association yanno'?

Hello John,

For me this is just a Guanella balun, 1:4 impedance transformation
with common mode suppression. I didn't do the math to see whether
common mode impedance is sufficient for OCF dipoles (to avoid feed
line radiation).

Regarding color use (purple/pink), that isn't limited to California
only.

Best regards,

At this point, I can't even remember why the reference of "balun to
windom to Cecil" holds a relationship in my mind ... I didn't pay any
attention to the core material/turns/etc. of the baluns which I posted
either ... just seeing if it related to what has stuck in my mind and
tossed it at Cecil to see.

I had wondered about that! P*ssed me off when I had to give up wearing
purple ... I had always let the wife "wear the pink" in the family. lol
