Review on Consumer Electronics Performance Shortwave Furniture by Tim Paolucci

Revainrating 3 out of 5

I don't think it's a 1:9 balun

I read all the reviews and can work around the negatives with pliers and bought it anyway. I don't want to mess up the production and I'm not an electronics genius, but if I understand correctly: a 1:9 balun should have 9 three-turn turns around the toroid. Mine was only 6. However, this improved my SWR reading a bit.

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
  • Only available in white

Works fine. Be sure to pop open and tighten the SO239 nut!
