I need some help with a balun for a TB6Em too.
Can anyone tell me if the balun is 1:1 or 4:1??

====================
Tom,
It should be 1:1, it uses a coil of Coaxial cable and a length of #10 of 
insulated wire to make the balun.

I had the predecessor to the TB6E called the TM-30C, it was the same 
design,using a hairpin loop for Z transformation.  I am sure the later models use the 
same balun design, Mike was not much for change.

PS I enjoyed your article on receivers in World Radio.
