Topband: Hybrid Coupler

[k6se@juno.com]

Has anyone built and used the hybrid coupler described in ON4UN's
"Low-Band DXing" book?  It's for feeding a pair of phased verticals with
90-degree phasing.

I'm interested in knowing what type of capacitors you used in the unit
and where to acquire them.

I'm getting ready to replace the 24-year old coax matching/phasing coax
system I've been using with a hybrid coupler.  If successful, we'll also
use one at our salt lake bed site during the 160-meter contests in
December and January.
