I received enuff "info" and thoughts to know I'll utilize the 5:7 winding
version. Thanks to all that replied!

Subject: Two 2:1 transformers to choose from!!
Date: Wed, 21 Aug 2013 13:23:37 -0600
I have two impedance transformers wound on BN 73-202 cores that I can use for
the 2:1 impedance transformer I need for my FO0AAA delta receiving antenna.
One has a 2 turn and 3 turn winding- giving a 4:9 impedance ratio. The other
has a 7 turn and 5 turn winding, giving a 25:49 impedance ratio. I don't know
which would be better - I believe the one with more
turns probably has better coupling, but more loss?!?!
I am splitting fine hairs here but....I am curious if one might say, 'Use "x"
instead of "y," Jim....Thoughts???
