Re: Which transformer?

Thank you Patrick,

That email sure looks familiar ;-)? Hey, that was over 4 years ago, is it any wonder that this old man forgot it.

Hi,

I've used Triad SP-67 600:600 Ohm transformers with great success. Not cheap, but good quality, compact, and they seem to be well matched as images etc are nearly non-existent.

NOTE: I have my HRD set up to display 192KCs of bandwidth, there is a very narrow "notch" right on the LO frequency. That is determined by the low frequency cutoff of the transformer, but it also prevents the sharp "spike" that you may otherwise see at the LO frequency.

Think I got mine from Mouser Electronics.

I hope this helps.
