Mine is a Homebrew Triple Core in a 1:1 Current Configuration. It makes the Balun in the back of my MFJ-989C look small. I use it on the 10 foot piece of RG-213 between my Window Line 450 Ohm and the

What is the impedance of the antenna at the feed point where the balun is connected? It most assuredly is not the feedline Z of 450 ohms. Unless the feedline is an electrical 1/2 wave then the feedli

You should rather use a 1:1 current balun Denton. I personally use a home-brew 1:1 current balun that cost about 1/3 as much as what most commercial baluns cost. You can see my balun here: http://www

Sorry Mike, POOR CHOICE! Open your balun (remove the cover) and look at how the two transformers are wound. Both transformers have their windings wound over the pair of stacked toroids. This is bad.

Good choice, Troy. That is an excellent balun. But you can build your own for much less. Part of the beauty (and high cost) of the Balun Design baluns is their excellent enclosure and weather-proofin

Wade, it sounds like you've got yourself a fine balun (perhaps). "Triple Cores"...the statement is meaningless unless you say which cores you use. I'm confident you used the right one, but finish the

Sorry... The balun is using (3) 2.4" cores. I have forgotten the composition but chose carefully many years ago. I got them from work at Teledyne. They build some *interesting* stuff there! This was

James, In your case, where you have the coax to the antenna buried underground, it actually already has an effective choke on it. So you will probably find no difference when adding another choke. Ho

If you want to know the very best balun for your own situation, then the question is not what balun for your tuner but rather which balun should you use for the specific antenna(s) in question. WHIL

Has everyone forgotten about "the ugly balun"? Inexpensive to build and will handle about all the power one can generate. Inside or outside, no housing required. A 25 ft length of RG-213 and about 18
