Model CB-9-1500 is a 9:1 multi-core, balanced output balun housed in a water resistant enclosure with top stud/wingnuts (TS) or Eye bolts (halyard top hoist, side eye bolts/outputs) used to translate a 50 ohm input up to 450 ohms at RF power levels up to 1500 watts PEP when used with a matched load. With matched 450 ohm load the SWR over the frequency range 1.8 to 61 MHz is less than 2:1 on the coax feed side. Actual SWR is under 1.25:1 from 1.8-180 MHz so very useful for 30-150 MHz also - see graphs for specific details

Features

* Wide Frequency Range 1.8-161 MHz, usable to 180 MHz < 1.25:1 into resistive load

* High Power, 1500 watts PEP (up to 61 MHz)

* Convenient side tab mounting feet

We also have the 9:1 with the built-in 1:1 choke/balun in part# CB-9-1-1500EB


Christmas lights or yard lights with switching DC power supplies are often the RFI source and a clamp on ferrite bead on the AC AND the DC side feeding the lights is needed to help suppress the switching power supply RFI noise.  Suitable snap on beads are FSB31-1/2 for the 1-250 MHz range.

We have also had reported wireless HDTV boxes, and FOSCAM and AMCREST security camera systems causing RFI to garage door remote openers. Use our Garage Door Opener RFI kit to suppress the interference to the opener (VICTIM) – you need one kit for each opener.  Maximize the distance from the camera to the openers may also help.  Additionally shield cable to the garage door sensors may be needed depending on severity of the camera RFI.

Obvious Tech Note: make sure your remote batteries have enough energy to activate the GDO or the signal they transmit may not be large enough to over ride the RFI signal, but a fresh battery may be able to overcome the weak RFI source and allow the GDO to operate correctly.
