Purpose. Model BA-9-1000 is a 9:1 balun/unun kit (assembly required from parts supplied) used to translate a 50 ohm input up to 450 ohms at RF power levels up to 1000 watts when used with a matched load. It provides conversion from unbalanced coax to balanced ladder line/antenna feed point and gives a 9:1 impedance step-up to reduce SWR on the coax. Place at the junction of the balanced line and the coax to convert from balanced line to unbalanced coax.It can also be wired as an UNUN with unbalanced coax input to unbalanced output such as an end fed antenna.
KIT Contents. The kit consists of a F240-61 ferrite toroidal core, three colors of insulated wire, a SO-239 UHF connector with stainless steel hardware, and an instruction manual.
Assembly time: About 1 hour
Radio Club idea:
Buy 10 for a club do it yourself construction project - you can learn something and also build an end fed antenna (just add wire).
Due to many requests for antenna static bleeders, we have developed a product line of static bleeders for coax and for ladder line applications. Static electricity is caused by many situations including high desert wind, atmospheric conditions, etc. You may hear static crashes or have a buildup of static electricity that my be annoying during a radio conversation and it may be harmful to solid state electronics if high voltages are present on the RF input to your equipment.
A static “Bleeder” which shorts the direct static voltage to ground while leaving the RF frequency voltage unaffected if very beneficial particularly to those operations in desert conditions where low humidity, high static buildup are quite common. The SB-1 and SB-2 coax static bleeders work on coax line and the SB-3 static bleeder is meant for ladder line.
THESE DEVICES ARE NOT FOR LIGHTNING PROTECTION AND PROVIDES NO PROTECTION FOR LIGHTNING STRIKES!!!!!
