Topband: Thanks , Re: Urgent for ARRL Dx test, Coax balun

[Ffive VHN]

Hello,

Thank you to everybody who replied tpo my question.

Yes, as was pointed out, it was not a Balun or even an
Unun I was looking for, but a choke.

I 'built' the 50ft of coax on a 6inch pipe, and it
worked fine.

For the ARRL contest I was using 500w in to an
inverted V at 115ft.
Luckily I had a beverage otherwise I don't think I
could have worked anybody, too much noise.

How did you find conditions ?

Thanks again for the replies,

Robert F5VHN ( op F6KCP)
