cat# B15HFVCMI
Contrary to popular belief that only dipoles need baluns. NOT SO, HF verticals fix'd or mobile (for mobile version, see model MM5022), can require baluns or common-mode isolators. The B15HFVCMI is a BUXCOMM product that fills this purpose to perfection. It's a current BALUN with specially fitted output terminals for ease of connecting to the vertical that does not use an SO239 input.
The path can be charges moving through the feed-line and radiating conductors. In addition, if your match is near the feedline or coaxial cable impedance, you could realize gain from your vertical antenna. P=I2 R.
When using an HF vertical, we recommend a minimum of 16 radials, bonded and terminating at the base of the antenna... NOTE: I did not say connected TO the base... I say, terminated at the base. This is be the point where the coax shield or the ground post of the BUXCOMM HFVCMI will connect.
PoweRated @ 1500 watts SSB; Made in Virginia, USA
