A roller inductor depends on pressure of the roller on the coil turns for that connection. When the pressure is low, the contact gets dirty, and so gets scratchy while tuning receive or transmit thou

Putting on a fly wheel helps to eliminate the drag. Once the caps are centered I adjust the roller inductor to minimum SWR. Then tune the caps and repeat starting with the roller inductor if necessar

While his understanding of impedance matching and filtering networks is a little off the wall, the concept of a balanced tuner with the balun at the 50 ohm side is a good one that keeps from abusing

Think about it mathematically. With an L network you have only two variables, the inductor and the capacitor. The goal is to transform the impedance of the load to 50 ohms resistive. The load can be

With an L network antenna tuner there are always at least two possible combinations of L and C to provide a match. Under certain conditions of the source and load impedances, there are four possible

If I may just throw my humble opinion / experiences in here. I use less that 100 Watts so it may not apply to some of the big gun setups. For a balanced feed I prefer very much the S-Match from PA0FR

Any complex source impedance can be matched to any complex load impedance by two L network configurations. One will be a low pass (series L and shunt C) while the other will be a high pass configurat

Oh, Yes. Absolutely. Notice that in my first example the position or location of the L and C are interchanged but their values are different. Yes, for a given location of the L and C you correctly st

If it is a Ten-Tec model 238 or 235, and probably also 229, there are only two configurations available. Those two configurations both have the L in series. The shunt C can be switched to either the

That's not necessarily true. The loaded Q depends on the impedance ratio. The higher the ratio, the higher the loaded Q. So for a large impedance ratio, there has to be a high loaded Q and large circ

Only up to 21 MHZ, is because of too much inductance. Unun must be acting like a old fashion link coil with out the link. I did something like that with a single coil and had 3 pairs of taps. One pai

Unun is simply a transformer. Can't call it an unun balun. Probably made with two windings series connected like a 1:4 voltage balun but connected to the world differently. Where the 1:4 voltage balu
