Hello & Happy Holidays to All! I would be interested to know what the procedure would be to perform a test on a balanced to un-balanced transformer (balun) like the Unadilla W2AU to determine It's va

Hook the 259b to the coax/unbalanced side, and hook a 50 ohm non-inductive resistor across the balanced terminals. Read the impedance on the 259b and that will tell you the transformation... if it re

Well, if it reads open or shorted then its probably bad. If the blue smoke came out its probably bad also. If you punched a hole in the insulation or partially melted it down so that it is weakened b

I have seen baluns with shattered ferrite cores. If you shake them they rattle. I am pretty sure that W8JI has balun testing info on his web site. 73, Dan, N5AR Well, if it reads open or shorted then

It's not like it's the most expensive piece of equipment you have for your hobby. When in doubt, just buy a new one. I probably have a half dozen laying around in my shed here collect over the years.

I understand that this tells the balun ratio, but does it also indicate that it is working properly? Other than tearing a balun apart, I've wondered how to tell whether I'd killed one with high volta

http://audiosystemsgroup.com/RFI-Ham.pdf includes an extensive tutorial on common mode chokes, widely known as "current baluns." I believe that the W2AU balun is a transformer (voltage) balun. The tu
