North Coast Amateur Radio Club - Meetings
"In Person" at the Strongsville Branch of the Cuyahoga County Library,
18700 Westwood Dr, Strongsville, OH
or via ZOOM
Trustees Meeting at 6:45pm JAN, APR, JUL & OCT.
Membership Meetings at 7:00pm
A ZOOM Program was at the NCARC March 9th 2023 Meeting
The Topic was Ferrite Toroid Baluns
Few hams have a clue of how to select a torroid and wind it to make a 1:1, 4:1 or 9:1 balun or unun.
The well-know radio books all seem confusing. This presentation shows the three very easy steps to
successful ferrite toroid design with very little math and a free on-line calculator.
There will be a question-and-answer period after the presentation.
A presentation from John Portune, W6NBC, a retired Broadcast Engineer who has written several articles for QST as well as published a book on "Slot Antennas". See his web site for more information W6NBC Articles
