Balun and Feedline
Connections
NOTE: For operation at power levels above 500
watts, construct a balun using RG-213/u coaxial
cable. The cable cut-off length is 80 1/4". The
sheild length should be 78" with 1 1/8" of center
conductor and dielectric exposed at each end.
Recheck all mechanical connections for tightness
and seal with Coax-Seal® or some similar
substance.
CAUTION:
Protect exposed cable dielectric from
U.V. with black tape or heat
shrink.
