Hi Craig,
On each antenna there is a 9:1 matching transformer with 6 turns on the 
receiver side and 18 turns on the antenna side. The terminating resister is 
680ohms. The toriod is FT-114-43 purchased from Amidon. Each antenna is feed 
with 4 separate RG6 runs to a 4 position rotary switch.

Thanks
 
James Niven

Hi James,

Did you equip your EWE with an impedance matching
transformer and a terminating resistor?
