Default What is the Best Direction to 'Point' a Sloper Antenna for DX ?

Palomar's currently sold 9:1 transformer is good only for a longwire,
but not for T2FD.


How can that be?

To email me remove the letter vee.


Because the presently made MLB-1 by Palomar Engineersis a UNUN for a
longwire. The older transformer which I used (may have the original
instruction paper somewhere) was a true BALUN. To build a T2FD we must
use a balun, since it is a broadband dipole.
