Apparently array solutions is now using type 31 material for their w1JR style baluns. The original stacked cores used type 61 material. Both the new style and the old style use several wraps of RG-39

Instead of mounting the toriod stack flat in a 4x4x2 box, why not mount it "on end" in a deeper (e.g. 4x4x4 or 4x4x6) box? It might take a little creativity to build a mounting baffle but standing t

Yeah I was contemplating that, Joe. I had noticed balundesigns had a new balun (25:50) that does that idea with a smaller core..picture here http://www.balundesigns.com/servlet/the-92/1-cln-2-unun-25

I've tried W1JR's crossover technique, and I can't measure any difference between it and a continuous winding. Other good engineers have also tried, and can't see any difference. My measured data is

Hi Jim, Why should one bother for wire and core insulation if the balun will be used to feed a 50 ohms load? 73 Peter use enameled wire.. unless it's got lots of teflon on it.. or has a teflon tubing

To answer some of the questions: -1:1 current balun is the goal, 3.7-30mhz. 5k ohms choke impedance across the entire frequency span. I guess that's a basic question: Can it be done with one design?

That's my take after reading Sevick's Fourth ed. If it's a 1:1 choke with a reasonably-controlled low to moderate Z on the load side of the balun, then for HF, I would lean toward coax on a #31 core

One true answer? Gee, I've published measured data and showed exactly what I measured and how I measured it. Have you gotten that from any mfr of any balun or similar product? 3.5-30 MHz is hardly a

Sevick appears to have been a superb engineer, but #31 material was not available to him. It was developed after he was actively doing any research. Most, if not all of his designs used low loss mate

I don't care about manufacturers. I'm just trying to decide what to make. You also showed that 12-16 turns of #14 THHN on a single type 31 core can have a much flatter response than the coax chokes,

Jim, Speaking of widebands.. what about recommendations for chokes to use with an autotuner at the feedpoint/base. That *is* a broadband application. My practical experience has been that you need to

They have a higher choking Z over a wider frequency range. No, I've not taken a serious look at any specialty coaxes that can be wound very tightly. I've looked at a lot of websites that folks have p
