Re: Analysing Input Impedance Matching Circuit for the NE602
So, the match is good over HF. Thinking after I hit send: Why not connect the secondaries together as you did for the S11 measurement and do an S21 measurement to assess loss? That way, both ports are

Re: Analysing Input Impedance Matching Circuit for the NE602
Looks pretty darn good to me. However, I must pose the question: how much of that good-looking SWR and centered on the Smith Chart is due to loss? Dave - W?LEV -- *Dave - W?LEV* *Just Let Darwin

Re: Wich one the get ? nanoVNA F or H4
On a NanoVNA-H, a linear polarizer, like most polarized sunglasses, has relatively little affect on intensity, regardless of the orientation. But in conjunction with pair of "3D" glasses, crossed with

Re: Analysing Input Impedance Matching Circuit for the NE602
Kerr, Here are some tests I did with 1 full turn on primary with 5 full turns on secondary. Primary wire comes out one side and secondary out the other. Ratio of 5 turns gives impedance transformation

Re: Analysing Input Impedance Matching Circuit for the NE602

Re: Analysing Input Impedance Matching Circuit for the NE602
Physically, yes. Circuit-wise and considering magnetics, its is a full turn. Dave - W?LEV wrote: -- *Dave - W?LEV* *Just Let Darwin Work* *Just Think*

Hi Roger, When I do one full turn on the primary (through the first hole and back down the second) I get the results as shown in the attached images. This is why I removed part of a turn to see what

Re: Analysing Input Impedance Matching Circuit for the NE602
Kerr, Here is a link with actual tests of transformers made with 73-202 binocular cores. Make sure you use insulated wire because 73 Mix material has low resistivity compare to Mix 43.

Re: Analysing Input Impedance Matching Circuit for the NE602
Kerr, Something is off with your results. I don't know how you are winding the binocular cores. You need full turns and one turn is a complete loop through one hole and back again. Try measuring VSWR

Ok, understood, but a picture would help to clarify it. -- El software de antivirus Avast ha analizado este correo electr¨®nico en busca de virus. https://www.avast.com/antivirus

Re: Analysing Input Impedance Matching Circuit for the NE602
The BN cores aren't actually toroids, they are "balun" cores or "binocular" cores that have two holes through them. So, if you wind through only one hole, you have a half turn.

Re: Analysing Input Impedance Matching Circuit for the NE602
hi Kerr, I really don't understand the 0.5 to 8 ratio and the "full turn" comment. In toroidal cores, one pass through the hole counts as a full turn, there are not things as half turns, so probably
