Re: Coax choke/balun
The best and sound information I've located in a single source can be found at the following URL. Open the 'balun' presentation. You will come away with a wealth of good sound engineering knowledge.

Re: Coax choke/balun
Hi Kevin, The choke folks are correct. This choke is used to stop/reduce the amount of RF on the shield of the coax traveling down the coax into the shack. Some folks will put a choke at the antenna

Re: nanovna-h help #applications
I have a NanoVNA-H which I just updated the firmware yesterday from the 0.2.xxx version which came with it to the latest Dislord version, 1.0.45.something. First thing, before you do anything else, is

Re: Measurement EFHWA
======== That is wrong. 21/3 = 7, so the impedance transformation ratio is 7 x 7 = 49, i.e. 49:1 To have a 64:1 impedance transformer you need a 8:1 turns ratio, in other words, e.g., 3T primary and

Re: Coax choke/balun
A common mode choke made by wrapping coax feeder through a toroid is directly equivalent to a 1:1 Guanella "balun". The term balun is in quotes because, although coaxial cable is clearly an unbalanced

Re: Saving Measurement from antenna

Coax choke/balun
I have seen desktop antenna/coax assemblies (such as for an SDR) that take the (thin) coax cable and wrap it around a small toroid about 3 or 4 times, close to the antenna. I understand this is to

Re: Measurement EFHWA
Hey Pete, Indeed it is a 1:49 after all... I didn't catch that when I posted. My EFHW started out as 3/24 turns (1:8) or a 1:64... but after measuring with the NanoVNA I ended up removing 3 turns. I
