Balun for "F"type Connectors??????
 
There's a guy on eBay (RFJUNKIE?) who sells baluns which use F connectors.

I have a reciever that has 2 screw antenna connections, 300 ohm. I
currently use RG-6 coax so I use a 4:1 matching tranformer at my
reciever and also at the Windom antenna in the attic.

I would like to setup a 90 ft random wire antenna outside using the
RG-6 and feed thru a ground block to the matching transformer into my
reciever. I'll need a 9:1 balun at the feed, but have not found a
ready made balun that accepts the "F" type coax connector. The ICE-180
and one currrently on eBay use a SO-239 connector and I have not found
connectors available to adapt to the RG-6.

Does any one know of a 9:1 Balun that accepts the "f" type connector?

Is he going out of business? I did not a see a note anywhere...

Maybe he is just liquidating a previous deisgn in favor of a new
design, for which he is tooling up?

Per an email I had from RFjunkie he will no longer be making Baluns.
Once they're gone they're gone.

That's too bad - he had a good product at a bargain. Must have found a
more lucrative business...or got tired of making them.

Often an advocation is simply not a profitable business :
While the time spent may be interesting and enjoyable;
it does not yield and income equal to the investment of
our time, energy and resources.

i wish rf junkie well in all his future endevors ~ RHF
