I've been reading up on baluns, boy is there a lot of conflicting
information. OK, so I read there's a voltage balun and a current balun, and supposedly what I want for a quad antenna is a current balun.. anyone have a favorite site that'll give me the clues to making one? I saw one page, they showed a ring with a piece of coax wrapped in different directions on each side of the ring.. is this ideal, or close to it? I assume I want a ferrite ring big enough to get the coax through, or can I use a plain iron or steel ring? This is going to be for a sideband CB, I'll probably never run more power than the stock base.. What about the coax wrapped around a piece of PVC? is this worth the 20 or so feet of coax or just a waste? The beginner has too much information with no clues as to what is good and what isn't.. Thanks all, John |
