[Elecraft] Balun Questions

[Richard Fjeld]

This doesn't answer your details, but what I did to test the one I made 
was simply to compare it to the balun in my manual roller inductor 
tuner. I used a short coax jumper between the tuner and the homebrew balun.

It is coax wrapped around a ferrite core, with appropriate connectors in a plastic weathertight box.  I used RG8X coax, a 2.4" core, not sure exactly what mix, and 11 turns.
