Two T200-26 iron powder toroids are used |
It's called a half-wave filter because it functions like a half-wavelength of transmission line, ( e.g., coax cable ), regarding the terminating impedances at the design frequency of 475.5KHz. Using lumped circuit elements is a much more practical proposition than 200m of cable. It also has a low-pass frequency response; theoretically 2nd harmonic 951KHz -27dB, and 3rd harmonic 1426.5KHz -47.8dB. This is a useful amount of extra attenuation. So I built it for use with my MF amplifier, ( posted 6 December 2015 ), to provide additional suppression of harmonics in the transmitted signal. It is connected externally in-line with the amplifier output.
