Re: Homebrewing a uBITX according to M0HYT
A bit of mix up there, HF transformers, unless they are for tuned designs, are normally of ferrite material.? They are normally clear-coated, and most often type 43 material unless for the upper end

Re: Homebrewing a uBITX according to M0HYT
Yes, since it is a transformer, it is the turns ratio that is most important, though the number of turns can impact the frequency response along with the core material.? I do not have the core

Re: Loop antennas
OR, explore building one by scanning for loop antenna projects at ARRL.com. ?They have published articles on a couple of very good ones over the past year or so. -- Sodypop?

Thanks for the input, Evan! I saw them on the schematic of the HFSignals device. You think I'll be fine winding 10 trifilar turns on the cicruit? 73 Marko 4O6MAG

Re: Homebrewing a uBITX according to M0HYT
The same basic circuit for the HFSignals uBiTx has 10 trifilar turns on the toroid.? Here is a picture of a number of them on the board: Hope this helps. 73 Evan AC9TU
