Now that I know how to make one, I like doing that if I¡¯m going to do digital. ? Common mode and unbalanced currents wreck havoc with digital systems.
But for the first 35 years that I was a ham, I didn¡¯t even know what they were. ? Somehow or another I made thousands of contacts and had a ton of ?fun.?
Here are some references that might help you with baluns (there are many good ones)?
Cheers,

Oh, thanks! I'm looking for an SWR-meter meanwhile. And about the balun ? Is it a "MUST HAVE" ?
