  Hi;

I have been reading lots about the construction of EWE antennas over the
past few days. I understand the need for a good ground, terminating
(variable) resistors and so on. What I'm less clear about is the
ferrite ring / balun / transformer. Where can you get these at? Does
anyone have part numbers or links to online stores? When ordering
stuff, I'm always leery of minimum orders and being on a tight budget
often stifles stuff like that.

Also what wire would work best? My one DX radio (a 20 year old RS
DX-400) has a two (screw) terminal antenna input. That worked well with
my old loop. How can I feed that with the EWE?

Thanks and 73,
