simple(?) question...
What do you do for resistors if you can't get carbon composition in the
ratings you need? I built a MFJ-1020A out of surplus and scrap before realizing that the metal film resistors I was using had inductive reactance when used in an RF circuit. My local parts depot mostly just has metal film resistors, not the carbon composition devices I need. Seems I heard somewhere that there is such a thing as non-inductive metal film, but if there is, how do I find it? Otherwise, where can I get carbon composition resistors these days? Any help would be appreciated. My home-built active antenna (for shortwave) puts out such a terrible signal it is virtually useless. Thanks, Dave (an RF newbie) |
