Balun 2:1

All Ultrabeam yagis work with an impedance of approximately 25 Ohms.

For this reason, driven-element motor-units use a 2:1 Balun to transform the 50 Ohm impedance of the feeding-line (coaxial cable) to 25 Ohm to be presented at the feeding-point. For the construction of a very reliable Balun, Ultrabeam hs adopted one of the many projects made by the famous Jerry Sevick (W2FMI) who was and still is, a world-wide reference in the field of transmission-line impedance transformation .The schematic of the Balun requires a special coaxial cable with an impedance of 25 ohm, adequate section and insulation. This is the reason why we do not use commercial coax cable and wrap it by hand in our laboratories. See WEBSITE
