50:800 ohm (16:1) Transformers
16:1 Baluns are useful between 750-850 ohm balanced loads where the impedance at the end of the feed line is 800 ohms (1/2 wavelength feed line), or high impedance feeds for rhombic, T2FD and traveling wave antennas.
16:1 Ununs are useful between coax and long wires with a load impedance near 800 ohms like a beverage antenna. Shortwave listener antennas also can benefit with the 16:1 unun and it may provide a better match than 9:1 ununs – this means quieter noise levels and stronger signals so you can hear distance stations easier.
16:1 transformers are made to order with manufacturing time of 5 or more days before shipment depending upon quantity.
The impedance transformers are classified in ratios of 2:1 (100:50 ohm) to 16:1 (800:50 ohm). The outputs can be configured as balanced (Balun) or as unbalanced (unun) with respect to the inputs which are considered all unbalanced coax at 50 ohms. All impedance transformers are designed for 1.8-31 MHz unless otherwise specified.
