81. [TowerTalk] P.S.: Surge supression (score: 1)
Author: "Rob Atkinson, K5UJ" <k5uj@hotmail.com>
Date: Fri, 07 Nov 2003 18:45:11 +0000
It seems to me that it will nevertheless still add an unwanted rf ground loop. It sounds like it might not be a problem provided you have common mode chokes in the feedlines between exciter and amp,

Don't worry about the built in antenna tuner and the length of the loop. Concentrate on building your balanced transmatch. Build it with components that are robust enough to handle your power level a

Author: "Rob Atkinson, K5UJ" <k5uj@hotmail.com>

Right, the best tuner depends on what you want to do. For balanced feed lines I use the Bliss Z Matchmaster. It uses two synchronized 30 mH roller inductors and a 1000 pf vac. variable. One of the th

You have all these guys telling you to add more radials which is true--you do need more. Also, more shorter is better than a few long. But before you go crazy or start messing around with ununs and s
