Re: RU-1:1 UnUn
I guess it strikes me odd that you would consider a 1:2.5 SWR into a DUMMY LOAD to be an acceptable result, forgive me if I maintain higher standards. Take a look inside one and tell me it's not

Re: RU-1:1 UnUn
I guess it strikes me odd that you would consider the characteristics to be of "Shoddy Manufacturing. A 2.25 SWR High is not out of line with the Physics involved, as a matter of fact, as a compromise

Re: RU-1:1 UnUn
Ryan, in another thread, I posted my SWR sweeps of the RU-1:1 into a dummy load, and now understand why it's behaving strangely with my portable rigs. I believe I'll try rewinding it in the manner you

Re: RU-1:1 UNUN SWR behavior, Is this normal?
I just came here to ask this very question! I sometimes run into some RF issues when operating portable with my various antennas, so I picked up an RU-1:1 to see if it would help. It DID greatly

Re: Antenna port isolation question.
Mike, That is a good technical question. Typically, we see about -40db of isolation between antenna ports in LDG tuners. For example, a 100 watt signal will "leak" to the other antenna port about 10

Re: Balun for ladder line fed multi-band "doublet/dipole" with an Auto Tuner?

I have used 4:1 Current BALUNS and 1:1 Current Isolation BALUNS from BALUN Designs for years with great success. Have also used DX Engineering branded designs (BALUNS & UNUNS) too, same great success.
