Tools for Matching Strange Loads | |
One of my favorites is a board with old fashion Fahnestocks Clips attached. Show is a tapped coil and a fixed capicator. | |
High power experiments require a higher voltage Capacitor. Leads with terminal making changing values easier. |
|
Field
Strength is Field Strength. . . ME-61 is shown, a good way to improve the ME-61 sensitivity is Another way to improve the meter is add an internal amplifier. |
|
Typical Field Strength meters, simple to build. | |
Several section of the capacitor can be tied together with clips or using terminals under the knurled knobs. |
|
Another favorite test board |
|
The small 6 uH variable inductor is used when attempting to adjust the inductance in very small amounts Once I arrive at a good setting I put it on the impedance bridge to obtain a value. |
|
A clip helps to short out windings. |
|
A gaggle of tools. | |
I've used this portable inductor on a lot of matching jobs. |
|
200 pf Variable with clips |
|
|
|
The tuner roller inductor is above ground mounted on a piece of lexan. |
|
It easy to change configurations on the tuner input cap using knobs and terminals. |
|
Quick way to check jumpers and cables, put a fixed resistor on the end and measure resistance. | |
A megger is a better way to check for faulty line and connectors. | |
