9:1 Balun Experiment – Does Core Choice Matter?

Post author By admin
Post date April 9, 2025

Join me, Steve (KM9G), as I dive into the world of 9:1 ununs with an unconventional core! My friend Ziggy sent over a minty green toroid, and we’re testing whether it holds up against the traditional cores used in ham radio builds.

🔍 What You’ll Learn in This Video:
✅ The science behind 9:1 ununs and core selection
✅ How different toroids impact performance
✅ A real-world antenna test in the rain 🌧️
✅ SWR results across multiple bands
✅ LIVE FT8 contacts—including a 5W QRP DX to St. Helena!

🚀 Can you really make a 9:1 work with any core? Let’s experiment and find out!

The RIGHT Way to Seal Coax – Lasts for YEARS!

Post author By admin
Post date April 9, 2025

In this video, I show you how to waterproof your coaxial connectors properly for outdoor ham radio setups, antenna installations, or CB radio systems, to avoid snow, ice, rain, or moisture from entering your coax cable. This method helps prevent signal loss, corrosion, and RF issues caused by water ingress. If you follow these steps using self-amalgamating tape and electrical tape, your connectors will stay protected and like new if you ever need to remove the tape in the future!

@bill-2018 has multiple attic dipoles with a slate roof and is wondering if the slates have any affect on his signal. Other roofs certainly do, but slate?
