- c: Same antenna with a 9:1 ratio transformer

First most of the very broadband 9:1 Matching
Transformers that are shown for Shortwave Radio
Listening (SWL) are also designed to cover the
AM/MW/BCB down to 500 kHz and SW Bands
up to 30 MHz. These usually recommend about
a 10-Turn Primary for the Feed-Line to the Radio
and about a 30-Turn Secondary for the Antenna
side.

Note - That you set a 5 MHz lower 'limit' so you
might want to cut the number of turns in half and
have a 5 -Turn Primary with a 15 Turn Secondary.



Both the examples you give have a three to one ratio. If this is a
nine to one example, I must be missing something in your explanation.

Please enlighten me.
