![]() Some time ago I acquired the remote control unit of the above loop antenna ...without the antenna itself. I now would like to use the control unit for a homebrew magloop . The magloop is to be connected to the control unit via coax which also carries the power for the motor driving the magloop's variable capacitor . To separate the RF and DC power (to the motor) an inductor is to be inserted into each lead to the motor . My question : How to size a suitable inductor for this application. The photo of the original MFJ magloop shows 2 inductors without a core The magloop to be made willl likely be used for 7 to 30 MHz So , what inductive reactance would be required for the lowest freqency , which would then also be OK for the higher freqs . TIA for any advice Frank , GM0CSZ in IO87AT PS : If necessary /appropriate I do have a range of iron and ferrite toroids to make any HF inductor for blocking RF to the motor. |
