[TowerTalk] Best Balun

[Wayne Kline]

Another neat trick with a torrid wound  balun.   
 
I  weld a #10-32   1/2  machine screw to a 2" all stainless hose clamp  jus 1" past the end of the tightening slots.
 
I then drill a hole in the  4" dead center in the bottom of the NEMA Box/  insert the threaded 10/32 machine screw  in the hole DEAD center of the wound torid
 
Instant mounting   all my boom are  2"  but can install what ever size clam you need .

Ps
  4 yrs ago I had a wind milling antenna... the coax STRECHED  RG-213  ... ripping the  brad and stretching  the insulation rg8X size  never tor the center conductor.
 
the W2FMI build torrid stayed   attached to the boom by the  #10 machine screw ..
