Experiment 8
This Experiment is a measurement of a 64 foot length of 1m-spaced AWG#28 wire, fixtured using 200 ohm input Klopfenstein tapered transformers preceded by 1:2 turns ratio flux-coupled transformers and also a 1:1 current balanced transformer. Calibration has been performed in a reference impedance of 200 ohms at the low impedance input connections of each tapered transmission line transformer.
Two 3” square pieces of thin shim brass stock each were pupnctured by a small central hole . Each of the two conductors was run through that hole at a point 40’ from Port 1 and 32 feet from the end of the tapered TL launcher. The wires were shorted to the brass.
This created small obstructions. A reference measurement is shown in blue while one with the obstructions is shown in green.
