Here is 4:1 Transformer for HF long wires (New Nov 09)
(8 Bit ASCII graphics use code page 437 or 850, Terminal Font)
THIS IS NOT A BULAN!
An auto-transformer may well make matching a long wire possable on AUTO ATUs
that do not have a good impedance range. (e.g. only for SWRs of < 3:1)
It is possable to rewire/switch a bulan to do this.
At this ratio the ferrite only has to handle 50% of the RF power!
Turns Ratio 5:10 giving a Z ratio of 1:4
Make sure they are phase & connected correctly.
In general a transformer turns ratio is square root of the Z/Z.
etc.
An autotransformer tapped system where the lower turn is a tapping of the total
also the lower turns should be 2x thicker!
Why Don't U send an interesting bul?
