Re: Attempting to build a surge-arrestor for my HF receiver




"Dave"
"Phil Allison"

I am trying to protect my HF RF amplifier from static coming down the
feed line, and would like to bounce some ideas off a few actual EE's.


** Err - why not just ask for advice instead ?

We are not brick walls, no need to bounce anything off us.

Your antenna just needs a resistive path to ground included in the
feeder.

The best answer is an RF choke.

100uH is probably enough.


Well, asking for advice is what I am trying to do. Sorry if the tone was
a little too stiff. Just trying not to be presumptuous.



** You failed.


Only problem with the resistive path to ground built into the feeder is
that I am trying to build the static protection into the device I am
trying to protect. It may not always be hooked up to this feedline, and I
would like it to stay protected.


** Is this dude for real ????



Thanks for the feedback. I will probably add such a feature to the
feedline in addition to whatever I do with the RF amplifier.


** Poor diddums - what a conundrum.
