Eric, the RS resistors are inductive, and probably wire wound and unsuited for 50 ohm impedance to RF. You would need compensation capacitor networks for them for each band.
You only measured their DC values as 50 ohms. Impedance is an AC /RF quantity. RS used to carry a true QRP dummy load, black with fins and coax connector. MJF and Ten Tech sell low cost non inductive dry resistor loads. Ten Tec's is a kit. 73, Stuart k5KVH _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: [email protected] http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft You must subscribe to post.
