![]() "Henry Kolesnik" wrote in message m... I need a sanity check. I fellow told me he was getting a balun to get a better match between his receiver and antenna to get a better signal to noise ratio. I told him he was wasting his time and money because a better match increases transfer of both signal and noise. But since he already can hear the signal he doesn't need any more. Now if he was to get a more directional antenna he would get a reduction in noise from the undesired direction. -- 73 Hank WD5JFR Your sanity's fine Hank. But why hurt the Balun manufacturer's business for the sake of an argument to no good purpose? Just tell this fellow that Radio Works (Portsmouth Va) will be happy to ship him a well made 4:1 Balun on the day of or day following his order. That helps keep a good company in business and it won't hurt your fellow's reception any. Jack |
