2B-500EB: The Bullet-2B is a multi-core Balun with a compact enclosure (looks like a bullet) enclosure that is lightweight and easy to transport for your portable loop antenna solution. Halyard hoist at top of Balun for convenient attachment point. Input is via SO-239 coax connector and output with side eye bolt output. Rated 500 Watts PEP Watts from 1.8-61MHz. DC grounded to coax shield for static bleed off.
\nThis transformer requires a feed line choke at the Balun to isolate the coax feed line from the antenna. A coax noise filter is also recommended at the radio end of the coax..<\/p>\n
Loop antennas are some of the best radiating and receiving antennas you can make. They can be in a triangle (called a delta loop), square or rectangle or even a circle. Horizontal loops can be fed anywhere that is convenient.

NOTE: We rate our Bullet Baluns (and UNUNS) VERY conservatively at 500 watts PEP with a 50% duty cycle. Some manufacturers selling low cost Baluns may use a 5% duty cycle for their PEP rating to make it appear you get a higher rated Balun for a lower price, but you may in fact be getting be getting less. Their 1500 watts PEP really means 75 watts continuous or 150 watts at a 50% duty cycle compared to our 250 watts at 50% duty cycle. Our Baluns typically cover a larger frequency range under 2:1 SWR which make your transceiver happy and probably will last longer with less electrical stress.<\/p>\n
Remember we over engineer our products, to out perform our competition – just compare the weight of our Baluns to theirs and you will know we put much more into our products so you don't have to worry about failure at a critical moment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
