While in the process of putting a preamp together (KD9SV design, 160 and = 80 versions in the same box), I realized that I have to run the RF = inputs and outputs very close together to utilize relay

Thanks Tom - this amp design has a variable gain, the "zero-gain" point of which is set by the correct selection of the biasing resistors. If I train myself to only switch bands when the pot is turne

I've been trying to put together an impedance transformer on the Amidon BM-73-202 binocular core. It is to be used on a flag RX antenna for 160m so I need about a 950:50 (19:1) transformation. The pu

Thanks everyone for the help... Once I thought about it some, it finally clicked in.......Inductance (uH) = 8.5 (turns^2) for the BN-73-202 core. All I have for now is the BN-73-202 cores. I worked u

After some quiet time with paper, pen, and calculator - I think I got it figured. I'm trying to go from 950 to 50 ohms, or 19:1, or 4.36:1 turns ratio for a single BN-73-202 core. A 2 turn:9 turn win

I could not get the math to work out without changing the formula. Take the popular 3-core transformer (BN-73-202) with 2 turns:4 turns. This is supposedly a 16:1 transformer. In order to do that, th

W8JI mentions a 1:4 step-up transformer on the 1025 for 5 dB improvement. Is this an isolation-type winding on a toroid, or something more like a Ruthroff 12.5-ohm:50-ohm "un-un" winding? Does anyone
