[Elecraft] [KX3] A BNC Connector to consider for your KX2 / KX3

[Mark Goldberg]

And as someone who has built several Baluns, these do not even say what the
impedance ratio is. A good Balun will have the right impedance ratio for
the intended job, and the right internal impedance between the pairs of
wires on the cores to provide a low return loss. It is not easy to get good
performance over the full 160 to 6 meter range. These do not look like a
good choice, unless you want to lose lots of signal in the Balun.

75 ohm BNC's -are- different and have smaller center pins.

In addition, the power ratings of video -and- TV baluns are miniscule ...
even for QRP use.
