All,

ON4UN lists optimum turns for binocular braid breaker baluns, but I have
not found similar info for toroidal baluns.

Using ft-106 type toroid and want to know if "more is better" or should I
limit bifilar turns to 2-3 as per binoculars?

I run qrp or 100W max, for now at least.

Just putting up a simple dipole at 50 feet to have a go at NAQCC QRP Sprint
and upcoming CQ 160.
