4:1 Current Balun 400W, 1-30MHz HF, SO-239 & Brass Wire Terminals, For Dipoles & Long Wire Antennas

A 4:1 current balun is an essential accessory for HF antenna installations, transforming the impedance from 200Ω (balanced) to 50Ω (unbalanced) while suppressing common-mode currents on the coax outer braid — reducing RF interference, improving antenna pattern symmetry, and protecting your transceiver. This unit covers 1–30 MHz across the full HF spectrum with 400W power handling, making it suitable for most amateur radio and CB base station setups. Connects to your coax via SO-239 (UHF-Female) and to your antenna wire via two brass screw terminals. Ideal for use with centre-fed dipoles, folded dipoles, G5RV antennas, and long-wire antenna systems.
