[TenTec] RadioWorks, was brainpower

[ac5e at comcast.net]

Back about 1990 I discovered the Titan was a lot less cranky with a Radio Works current balun between the Paragon and the amp. Since then I have made a habit of putting one at TX antenna jacks of each of the successive rigs that have been on line here. Including the PII, Omni V, the three Omni VI's, and the Orion - plus a few mistakes from other marques. Things get busy behind the Orion, for sure! 

There's also a grounded line isolator at the shack side of the lightning arrestors on each of the coax cables going out of the shack. I have two ICE arrestor bars completely loaded for three rotors and seven transmission line. They work and work well. 

Perhaps oddly to some, and despite being quite close to my antennas, I have no other ferrites on any other cable going to the Orion.
