Re: lightningbolt 4 element balun info Hi All Thanks to all that answered my post. I planed to make it just like the 4 element lightningbolt. Some have suggested to feed with separate feed lines Posted - Mon Feb 13, 2012 5:25 pm	Bill Mason n8op Offline Send Email
Re: lightningbolt 4 element balun info I plan on using the budwig. I will use a couple of the copper wire nuts, the ones with the split bolt and nut, you use for connecting 10 and 12 ga wire. W5RY Posted - Sat Feb 11, 2012 3:25 am	Greg Schultz Sr gwschu Offline Send Email
Re: lightningbolt 4 element balun info Larry, Look here, about halfway down the page. This is what John did and I have some I made to use here that are identical and I made them from 1/4 inch nylon Posted - Sat Feb 11, 2012 3:25 am	Michael Goins k5wmg Offline Send Email
Re: lightningbolt 4 element balun info Thanks for the suggestions, everyone. I do have some of the Budwig center insulators, which I picked up at an estate sale. They would be okay if I was using Posted - Sat Feb 11, 2012 12:22 am	larryjspammenot@... k7ljk7lj Offline Send Email
Re: lightningbolt 4 element balun info Cubex also sells their center insulator, or you can easily make some. I made six for the quad I'm building here from nylon. Mike, k5wmg * * Posted - Fri Feb 10, 2012 8:59 pm	Michael Goins k5wmg Offline Send Email
