Re: Measuring 49:1 ferrite transformers


 

Would you please take multiple pictures out of the box so we
can see the winding technique and how things are connected!
It appears the secondary is center tapped. Please - out of the bos!

Gary - very interesting!
I would urge you to also post notice of your work on QRZ.com. There is
active discussion of EFHW 49:1 technology in the "Antennas, Feedlines,
Towers & Rotors" forum, with significant contributions by retired EE
professor Mike Mladejovsky, WA7ARK.
* This should provide a link to the Forum:

* This should provide a summary of posts from WA7ARK:


Have you yet had opportunity to evaluate FT-240-52 mix cores? It's my
understanding a triple stack of 52 cores offers better performance (versus
43 mix) for higher power HF applications - reference this 2019 YouTube
video from Steve Ellington:

It would be very interesting to specifically compare FT-240-43 versus 52
mix cores for HF use with EFHW transformers.
