Current Balun 50 Ohm 1:1
 |
This current balun is an ideal solution for feeding antennas with a symmetrical 50-Ohm-impedance like beams or dipoles. In the shack you should use such a balun for common wave suppression at the end of the antenna coax-cable near the Transceiver. For 7-50 MHz 2 x 4 turns For 1,8-50 MHz 2 x 5-6 turns

You can mount the balun in a box with two coax-sockets, or like here with socket and plug connector or with two plug connectors and cable ends. |

Test circuit for the effectivity of the balun R/2 is 25 Ohm. If the balun is not working properly he "sees" the load as 12,5 Ohm (2x25 Ohm parallel) and the result is a bad SWR. Here the current balun with 2x4 turns has a good barrier effect between input and output. |
