[TowerTalk] Roller inductor sources

[Patrick W7TMT]

Tom,

I've read your comments & analysis of "T" tuners before with interest but
what's your opinion on the "L" - double balanced" tuner concept with
variable inductors in each leg (used with open wire feeders)? Is this a
viable application of the "L" style tuner or is there a better "T"
configuration equivalent for balanced feeders?

Thanks

Patrick

If someone really wants to save money, they should just build a T network
tuner and use a good 1:1 current or choke balun on the tuner output.

There is little reason to do anything else, unless they just like to
experiment or build things.
