Tom, Are the cracks all the way through? If so, just as is I would think there would be an effect. Assuming little material is missing, I think you probably could carefully glue it back together, trying to get things as tight as possible. If the cracks don't separate it into pieces, I might try using super glue in the cracks to keep it together. Perhaps a more important question is why did it crack, and what can you do to prevent further cracking. If there was no obvious physical stress that caused the cracks, it sounds like it could be defective material in the first place and you might be better off replacing it if possible. 73 - Mike WA8BXN -------Original Message------- From: [email protected] Date: 10/15/2011 8:30:31 PM To: Elecraft Subject: [Elecraft] Toroid Balun Cores I'm refurbishing an old antenna here and the toroid in the matching balun is
Cracked in several places. Will that affect the toroid performance? ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
