Magnetic Longwire Balun: weird resistance. What is normal?

In message , Geoffrey S. Mendelson writes Decent quality RG-6 coax is easy to find at any of the home improvement type shops, satellite TV dealers, etc. It's a lot better than the RG-59 or RG-59/U that was sold in the past. If possible, if the coax is fairly long, I'd try and 'acquire' something a bit less lossy than RG6 (at 50MHz, 5dB/100m, 1.5dB/100'. For cable TV, RG11 (3.1dm/100m, 0.95dB/100') is sometimes a 'long drop' alternative to RG6 or RG7. But you can do better than that. A Google should bring up specs. This site gives a good selection. The CATV trunk cables look interesting, but will usually be literally a bit 'too hard to handle'. http://caledonian-cables.com/product/Coaxial%20Cables/coaxial.htm Davis RF Buryflex is da ****. |
