Termination Resistor, 500 Ohm Non-Inductive for T2FD, BBTD, Rhombic, 1-61 MHz, 600 Watts
Product Details

Broadband, Non-Inductive Termination Resistor load used on many terminated antenna types such as T2FD, Broadband Terminated Dipole (BBTD), Rhombics and others

Resistive Value: 500 ohms (+/- 10%)

SSB (25% duty cycle) rating in Watts: 600

CW/FT8 (50% duty cycle) in watts: 400

Length (tip to tip) Inches: 14"

Width inches: 3"

Inductance < 20 nH (1-61 MHz)


Internal Resistance Wattage: 200 watts

If you need more power rating, consider putting two TR-1000-600 resistors in parallel for a total of 1200 watts at 500 ohms.

50 ohm coax to 75 ohm balanced output baluns are useful for low (< 1 wavelength) dipoles exhibiting 75 ohm characteristic impedance or for matching to balanced ladder line whose endpoint impedance is near 75 ohms.

50 ohm coax to 75 ohm CATV coax connections are easily done with a 1.5:1 unun with SO-239 connectors on input and output.  Likewise 50 ohm coax to unbalanced verticals or loads near 75 ohms can be matched with a 1.5:1 unun.
