Hi, On Ebay, I saw some russian L-couplers for sale. They are made of two coils, both wound on a virtual sphere. One of the coils is slightly smaller and placed within the larger one. The inner coil

They are sometimes called variometers. They have terrible Q at minimum inductance, especially at higher frequencies. Of all the common methods, this is the least efficient way to vary inductance ove

My first TRX in 1963 was a Wireless Set No.19 MkIII equipped with the 807 in the final. That radio also used a variometer as an ATU, it was a very quick and reliable means of coupling random wires or

I wonder how bad the varicouplers really are. The they often don't have a rolling or rubbing contact like roller inductors because a piece of very flexible wire can be used. Also, you can go from max

The area that primarily causes Q reduction in a roller inductor at lower frequencies is the shunt capacitance from the inductor to the frame and the countering flux generated by end plates if metall

Sorry I meant 180 degrees. The point is if it is used in an application where a high Q is not needed there would be no problem because the circulating currents would not be high. Often they were used

I don't think everyone has a grasp of how poor that design is for wide range inductances. Let's assume it takes 20 feet of #12 wire to have enough inductance to cover 160 meters. On ten meters the s

Yeah, why use a ball of wire for an inductor when you can bend up some serious water pipe to do the same thing? I don't think everyone has a grasp of how poor that design is for wide range inductance

You are assuming the Varicoupler is supposed to cover say .5uH to 80uH. Which is not its usual application. It is often use to fill in the gaps between taps on larger coils. Also, as I said in a L-Ne
