5 Impedance Matching
The input impedance of an antenna system can be assigned either notionally, or using a Match Meter or measuring bridge

50 watt z match tuner
A tuner that will work 10 thru 80 meters and handle up to 100 watts of RF

A single coil z match
This ATU being balanced can accomodate balanced line, open wire feeder or 300 ohm slotted

A homebrew z-match
i used a t-200-6 core. the type-6 core over the type-2 because it provides a higher q over most of the hf range

50 MHz preamp Gain 26dB with the BFG135

50 MHz preamp Gain 26dB with the BFG135 Preamps for 144 and 430 MHz, for 50 MHz, the BFG135a is a cheap transistor and in my view rather strong. It is not easily damaged by static discharge or RF power. FG connection

30 Volt Computer Power Supply Stack A bonus was that i discovered that these did not need a standby load connected to the supply to keep them running just apply mains power and close the Start lead to ground
