Yeah...I see the system burped because it couldn't swallow that whole URL.
So go to Minicircuits.com and ask 'Model Search" to show you T16-6.

This puts you right on the page for a 16:1 transformer. They're pretty
inexpensive.

I've finally decided to try my hand at building a "Superloop" antenna as
described in the October 2009 issue of "Popular Communications" in an
article by Bruce Conti.
In that article he mentions a 16:1 matching transformer made from a
binocular ferrite core and 30 AWG wire. I've never had much luck at
winding my own coils. For my previous "Flag" antenna, I used 16:1
transformers from Mini-Circuits which performed well, but suffered many
failures due our frequent and intense lightning storms here.
Bruce's article mentions that many amateurs are available to make these
coils and easily found on the Internet--but I'm having no luck.
Does anyone out there know someone who makes great 16:1 transformers for
Superloops and would be willing to wind two of them for me? Happy to pay
for the service, and can send funds via PayPal or USPS money order.
Thanks!
