Been reading in ON4UN low band dxing book about mulitable element receive arrays for 160 meters. I'm a little confused about 180 deg phase inverters, and flip transformers are these two the same thing?


I never heard of "flip transformers" before, but in context of the application I immediately recognize it as different names for the same result. They invert, or rotate, signal phase 180 degrees over a wide frequency range.

Any reasonable name is acceptable as long as the text or context explains the function.
