Quality UNUN
"Now I have the CHA 4:1, 9:1 and 49:1 that I use for various setups. They are all high quality and work well. Definitely recommend"
UNUN/BALUN · Feed Systems & Loading
A matching, loading, feedpoint, transformer, choke, or antenna-interface component.
Why operators make room for it
CHA UNUN/BALUN: put the matching function in the right complete system
The most visible part of an antenna is rarely the part doing the matching, loading, or current control that makes the deployment usable. Unleash the power of seamless connectivity with our latest innovation – the CHA UNUN/BALUN series. Designed to elevate your antenna experience to unprecedented heights, these high-power marvels are set to redefine your communication journey. That gives the operator a controlled way to shape the completed antenna, verify the match at low power, and understand which component limit governs before transmitting harder.

- Best for
The most visible part of an antenna is rarely the part doing the matching, loading, or current control that makes the deployment usable.
- What else you need
Observe the lowest published power rating of every connected component and the duty-cycle limits for the operating mode.
- Compatible with
Match every RF connector, thread, conductor, and ground / counterpoise connection
- Limitations
- Observe the lowest published rating of every connected component
- Match every RF connector, thread, conductor, and ground / counterpoise connection
What an operator can do
- Install the component at the documented feedpoint, loading position, or common-mode control location.
- Observe the lowest published power rating of every connected component and the duty-cycle limits for the operating mode.
- Verify resonance, SWR, tuner range, connector type, and grounding or counterpoise requirements before transmitting.
Compatibility: Physical fit does not by itself establish RF, power, environmental, or structural approval. Follow a documented completed-system configuration.
