ASSEMBLED COAX FEED LINE CHOKES

Many customers have requested an assembled sleeve unun or balun 1/4" size cable and we have one all completed with shrink tubing and PL-259 end connectors or open ended on one end for a balanced connection such as a beam, dipole, etc.

All you need to add are 2 barrel connectors (Part # DFBC-1) to insert into your coax cable. For best results add one feed line choke at the antenna to keep the RF on the antenna and another feed line choke at the station entrance to reduce the common mode noise picked up by the antenna braid and fed into the station. Rated 500 watts from 25-300 MHz into 1:1 SWR load.

Common Mode Rejection Ratio up to 20 dB (over 3 "S" units) - see graph for specifics..

Available with PL-259 output or solder lug output (for attachment to a balanced output such as a yagi antenna for dipole fed antenna


4:1 impedance transformers (Baluns and Unun configurations) are available in kit form or assembled form in a weatherproof  Current Unun and Balun Enclosure which we call CUBE Baluns™ and CUBE Ununs™. All 4:1 impedance transformers use ferrite cores and the kit forms can be configured as a balun with balanced output of 200 ohms or as ununs with one side grounded.

4:1 baluns are designed for 50 ohm unbalanced (coax) input to 200 ohm output (either balanced or with one side grounded).

4:1 Baluns are useful between balanced lines for center fed Zepps, Off-center fed (OCF) dipoles with coax, G5RV antennas, full wave loops, NVIS dipoles that are close to ground and have impedance levels near 200 ohms or high impedance feeds for log periodic beams.

4:1 ununs are useful between coax and vertical antennas, monopole verticals or long wires with load impedances near 200 ohms.
