Re: Low Supply of 0.6mm Copper Wire

?
So, the takeaway here seems to be that using insulated hookup (stranded?) wire is actually better than using the supplied 0.6 mm enameled wire for the T507 transformer secondary.
Is that correct?
Probably. Some people here noted that the SWR of a dummy load increases a little towards the top end of the frequency range of the 20-10m QMX. The cause is coupling between the transformer windings. You can improve it by trying to push the 0.6mm wire single-turn further away from the 10-turn 0.33mm wire turns. Having a piece of insulated hookup wire would tend to improve that separation automatically because the insulation takes?up a little space so enforces at least a small separation.?
The difference is likely to be slight however.?
