I just built that RF load kit from OHR. Works as advertised. At 150 MHz, the impedance is 50 + j2, which is pretty good for metal oxide resistors. At HF, I can't measure any reactance but that's probably due to the SWR meter.
The load is convection cooled (flow-through). Kit instructions are clearly written and easy to follow. 73, matt W6NIA On Sun, 29 Mar 2015 16:47:52 +0000, you wrote: >I found this link: > >http://www.ohr.com/index.htm > >Robie - AJ4F > >On Sun, Mar 29, 2015 at 4:34 PM, Jim Miller <[email protected]> >wrote: > >> >> I tried to Google it and made it to the OHR Website but could not find it. >> Somebody please post a URL to a source. >> >> Thanks. 73, Jim KG0KP >> >> >> -----Original Message----- >> From: Elecraft [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of >> Ernie >> Kluft >> Sent: Sunday, March 29, 2015 6:55 AM >> To: [email protected] >> Subject: [Elecraft] 50 Ohm Load >> >> For those still pondering what dummy load to use, consider this... >> My Cantenna is at least 40 years old and while I should have put a meter on >> it, I thought that little unit sold by OHR mentioned by others would be >> worth having.... $51.05 including postage to Dallas and about an hour of >> my >> time to carefully build it...
