A buddy is trying to get a 1:9 un-un to work on his grid driven tetrode.
Terminated in a 450 ohm globar, SWR is 1:1 but only up to aprx 20 mhz.
Above 20 mhz, it rapidly all goes to hell....reaching 2.5:1 at 29.00
mhz. ( this on the test bench)
He needs the 1:9 un-un to work from 80-10m. What's the trick here ?
What is the ideal material to wind the trifilar onto ?
Once eventually installed into the amp, a small coil is wired in parallel
with the 450 ohm globar to cancel out the XC from the tube, but that is a
normal procedure, and will not alleviate the high swr issue on the upper
bands.
