Review on πŸ“» HAM Equipment Balun Kit NXO-100 for 1-30Mhz Shortwave Radio: Magnetic Balance for Enhanced Performance of Amateur Radio Antennas - DIY by Kevin Jacobson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

No instructions and poor body drilling

Balun arrived on time. The claim in Revain's ad is that instructions are sent via email. It never happened. I found instructions on Youtube. These directions apply to baluns 1-9. Drilling the pl-259 connector is terrible. I had to cut holes to fit the connector. The youtube instructions list six ground pins for the pl-259 connector. I only received four. I have no idea what the original purpose of these bottom tabs is. I used the supplied ones to solder the input ground to the connector. I'll update this when I'm done with the 1-1 balun and measure it.

Pros
  • Satisfied so far
Cons
  • No machine gun
