What does the terms 4:1, 16:1 etc. for baluns really mean? Neither of
these
links and none of the books or articles that I have read (skimmed?) explain
what happens to the reactance part of the impedance when a ratio balun is
used! Most likely, all of the antennas that include a balun probably have
a
reactance part of their impedance which varies as the frequency changes so
I
would think that this is a valid question for understanding baluns?
