That was Carl who wrote that. As you may know, the Carborundums are fragile being not much more than powdered carbon granules molded and held together by some bonding agent. I used a Dremel cut-off d

At a single frequency (or depending on the Q, a relatively narrow range). The laws of physics, as described by the classic resonant frequency curves, apply in full. Wire wound resistors as an RF dumm

As one forum member pointed out 50KW BCB water cooled dummy loads use nichrome elements with a fixed cap to cancel the reactance. That is not a "narrow range". Measuring a true non inductive resistor

Youre missing the point; again. I said BCB, not one frequency. The loads covered up to 1500 KHz or so and above that the cap had to be changed. I see no reason why an inductive resistor cant be used

I know you said that, but I don't believe it. 540-1700 kHz is a 3:1 range. In most RF systems, a dummy load needs to be pretty close to purely resistive. It is hard to believe that what you describe

Since it was used succcessfuly by a Gates installation team in the 60's that statement is irrelevant. 540-1700 kHz is a 3:1 range. Without knowing the actual construction of the load or resistive ele

Yep. And the most practical way to do that is to measure it at RF. The test setup I published in my RFI tutorial to measure chokes would work. Most antenna analyzers would at least get us in the ball

Jim, how about backing into Elsie with a .01 cap as that is what I believe Gates used in that load. With large diameter nichrome elements arranged in an array that minimized coupling I would have to

Guys: If a .01 uF cap was used in series with a load to tune it to 1 MHz, then the load had an inductance of 2.533 uH. The return loss would be 20 dB or better over the range of 750 kHz to1320 kHz. I

What about the other resistors? Immersed in oil they could handle some power. The Heath Cantenna used a 50W element. As mentioned earlier I was looking at single band applications at 1.8 and 3.8 MHz,

How did you measure those values? At what frequency? What was the resistance at the frequency of the measurement? These are important questions, because that coil that we're calling a resistor has L,

So far no-one has mentioned non-inductive winding technique. I think Caddock use a method of winding in one direction, then half way along reverse the direction to complete the winding. David G3UNA -

Don't know who Caddock is. First, we're talking about wire wound resistors here, not general coils. Second, if you believe a technique like this will work, I suggest you build one and measure it. 73,

Caddock resistors are great www.caddock.com and are very good at high frequencies. The 100W ones come in TO-247 transistor type packages and are a resistance film fired onto a flat ceramic substrate.
