6uH in BITX40 band pass filter?
#bitx40
Greetings, I'm about to start building a BITX40 with the dead bug style and I've noticed that the filter passes band indicates 6uH however 40 laps on a toroid T30-6 is 5.76uH, not 6 ... I mention this because in my toroids I have 5.8uH and if I give it one more lap I have 6.2uH. So, which one do I use?

?A? ldrich?I would use 41 turns to start with.? That way you can easily remove one turn if 41 turns is too much.? Arv? K7HKL _._ ?

My doubt is because the same pass filter of BITX40 should not have 6uH because the scheme says 40 turns on toroid T30-6. Apparently this does not affect you. On the other hand I thought it was a filter with a series tuned circuit but if you put 6uH in series with 100pF you get 6.497Mhz ...
Additionally Allison, this filter does not have variable capacitance. |
The inductor winding (40T) could be tweaked slightly taking turns little closer o to increase 5.76 to become 6uH. ? please try with little patience you would succeed. Regards MVS Sarma ? On Fri, May 25, 2018 at 4:02 AM, Aldrich Sarmiento <aldrich.sarmiento@...> wrote:
