Model CB-6-1500 is a 6:1 (300:50) voltage balun housed in a Nema enclosure box (4″ x 4″ x 2″) with two top studs capable of input power levels up to 1.5KW PEP/500 watts continuous when used with a matched load. The 6:1 ratio takes 50 ohms input and matches to 300 ohms balanced output from 1.8-61 MHz with SWR < 1.5:1 under matched load conditions. A great balun for windoms, OCF antennas >60 feet over ground, Hertz and folded dipole antennas, T2FD etc. Dual core, Ruthroff style balun. Choose version with side eye bolts for wire attachments for OCF dipole use.
Hybrid 9:1 Current Balun + 1:1 Current Balun in one enclosure, 1.8-61 MHz, 1.5KW PEP - BBTD, T2FD AntennaProduct DetailsMPN: CB-9-1-1500EB or TS option, N suffix for N connector inputCountry/Region of Manufacture: USAInput ohms/Output ohms: 50 in/450 outFrequency Range < 2:1 SWR (MHz): 1.8-61 MHz for 1.5KWPEP Power Rating (watts): 1.5KWEnclosure Size: 4"x4"x 2"(1.5KW), 6"x 6" x 4"(3KW/5KW)Weight (pounds): 3After many requests we have created a compact, special hybrid balun for Terminated Folded Dipoles (TTFD) and Broad band Terminated Dipole/loop (BBTD) antennas. The CB-9-1-1500 is a CUBE(TM) enclosure containing a multi-core, broadband 9:1 impedance transformer (50 ohm coax input to balanced 450 ohm output) in series with a 1:1 current balun for extra common mode current choking to keep RF current off the outside of the coax braid and on the antenna where it belongs. The extra choking action also means that the coax feed line will not act as a radiator causing unnecessary RF interference (RFI). Rated for full 1500 watts PEP and 450 watts CW (ICAS). 1.8Mhz – 61 MHz.
CB-9-1-1500EB is housed in a 4” x 4” x 2” waterproof housing with SO-239 input and stainless steel eye bolts on the side for ease of connection to your wire antenna. Top eye bolt acts as an antenna hoist. Also available with top studs for post or wall mounting (Model # CB-9-1-1500TS)
Termination resistor for the antenna is a Model # TR-500-600
N connector versions are customer made to order - please allow up to 10 days after order before shipment.
