Tim, Et Al,Golly! Thanks for the update as I am in the process of getting my HDX-555 tower up, after a 5-year hiatus and resurrecting a Force-12 C4-XLD. From 2004 CE until 2015 CE, I had used big Cal-Av EB-3 baluns on the Force-12 (one each for the 40-meter and 20 through 10 meter sections). I see that they are no longer manufactured thus I may need to consider other choices if the need arises. Thanks for the heads-up.

If you want the best in class common mode impedance performance take a look at DXE. Yes, I work there and yes we have compared them in the lab to insure DXE is better. 73 Tim K3LR -----Original Message----- From: TowerTalk [mailto:towertalk-bounces@contesting.com] On Behalf Of David Gilbert Sent: Monday, July 20, 2020 10:57 PM To: towertalk@contesting.comSubject: Re: [TowerTalk] Balun for Force 12 6 Element 20 Meter MonobanderI think K9YC's data on Balun Design common mode chokes would suggest otherwise.
