If we want to be accurate, an un-un is nothing more than a
simple autotransformer. The first un-uns were actually
constructed in the 1800's or earlier.

If you are speaking about a style or design of transformer,
the transformer DX Engineering sells is very much different
than those in Sevik's articles and book. They are similar in
that they are both RF autotransformers.
