Description
Excellent broadband balun that can be used anywhere there is a need to transform 75 ohms balanced to 50 ohms unbalanced. Its most common use is at the feedpoint of monoband dipoles that have an impedance of 72-75 ohms. This is a two stage unit with a 75 ohm 1:1 current balun wound on the large toroid to generate high levels of RF choking impedance and conversion of the signal from balanced to unbalanced . The output of the balun is then fed into a 1.5:1 unun for impedance reduction to a 50 ohm unbalanced feedline.
Please note this balun is not eligible for exchange or refund other than defect in materials and/or workmanship.
Specifications
