Product Details
MPN: CB-1-1500TS
Input ohms/Output ohms: 50 ohms in, 50 - 150 ouhms output
Frequency Range < 2:1 SWR (MHz): 1.8-61 MHz
PEP Power Rating (watts): 1500
Enclosure Size: 4 x 4 x 4
Antenna Compatability: G5RV/ZS6BKW/Dipole

The CB-1-1500DS Antenna Antenna Tuner Balun is a 50 ohm to 50 ohm, multi-core feed line choke designed to provide high choking impedance between a balanced ladder line feed line antennas (zepp, G5RV, extended double zepp, etc.) or single ended antennas like 1/4 wave verticals and a remote antenna tuner (including an automatic antenna tuner with only a single output and ground, like SGC-230, Icom AH-4, etc) short 50 ohm coax feed line (to antenna tuner) at a power of 1500 watts PEP from 1.8 to 61 MHz.

The input and output connectors are double studs marked +/-.

The CB-1-1500DS is configured as a Guanilla transmission line transformer with balanced outputs (current balun configuration). It is best used when ladder line impedance seen at the end of the ladder line to balun connection is close to 50-150 ohms. Enclosure box is 4″ x 4″ x 2″. Typical choking impedance range is 1K-10K ohms from 1-61 MHz.

ZS6BKW at AK6R png - Garage Door Opener RFI Kit

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.
