Pancake wound Pi coil
I guess what I really wanted to do is make a PA
for all bands with a plug in PCB. That would have
the right size coils etched into it for each band.
So when I change bands I would just unplug one
band PCB and plug in another PCB for the band
I want. Rather than a band switch that would arc
out. Or a roller inductor that I would have to turn
to the right number of turns to get to the band I
want. Alot cheaper to plug in PCB's than the
price of a band switch with lots of wires
or roller inductor.
This would eliminate trouble switching to 10
meters with a band switch I suspect.
I'd use an edge card connector to plug the coils/PCB
into and out of an edge connector.
