50:450 ohm (9:1) Balun or Unun Core Kit, .5-32 MHz, 1000 watts PEP, end fed/Ladder Line, T2FD antenna
Product Details
MPN: BA-9-1000
Type: balun or unun
Input ohms/Output ohms: 50 in, 450 out
Frequency Range < 2:1 SWR (MHz): .5-32
PEP Power Rating (watts): 1000 Watts PEP
Antenna Compatability: Unun: End fed, Balun: Ladder line

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).

Mobile RFI kits work two ways: They suppress RFI from on board computers and other sensing/control devices in your vehicle that may cause your radio to be a VICTIM of RFI, and second they suppress RFI generated by your radio as a SOURCE which may affect your on board computers or other devices.  Mobile operations of HF radios (1-30 Mhz) tend to experience more RFI effects than VHF/UHF mobile stations.  If you have both HF and VHF installations in your vehicles, you may need both kits.

To address separate solutions we have developed two separate RFI kits: one for HF (1.8-300 MHz) mobile installations and another for VHF/UHF (30-1000 MHz) mobile installations.  Each kit uses the appropriate ferrite mix for the frequency range desired.
