HI EMEers and DX friends This is to publish the home work of a 2-way powercombiner for 50 MHz with a perfect result. The combiner is for Fc of 50.1 MHz but has typ. a BW of 5 MHz. 2 x 50 Ohm antennas ------------------------------------------------------------------ Measurement : Fres ; 50.1 MHz Returnloss : 24 dB Insertionloss : 0.09 dB TNX to OZ3SW, Steen ------------------------------------------------------------------- Materials : 1 ps SQR ALU boom 30 x 30 mm and 26x26 mm inside Lengh : CUT 1500 mm 1 ps Centerconductor : Ms, 15 mm , ( 15 /13 mm , 1mm hickness) (cobber is difficult to solder but ok ) Lengh : CUT 1480 mm Drill distance 1470 mm - Holes for the connectorpin : 2.6 -- to 2,8 mm 2 ps ENDcaps of polyethylene ( rem. a 3 mm hole in center) 3 ps. std emale N-connectors Before soldering : PSE remove all fat and clean and polish. screws : 12 ps of M3 x 6 mm / or M3 x 8 2 ps of bushings . Pfte 3 pcs. std emale N-connectors outside. 26mm and inside 15 mm , 2mm thick placed 0.5 M. inside from each end ------------------------------------------------------------------ GL with the experiments and drop me a hint if you have any Qs..
