Both the inputs and outputs must be matched to 50 ohms. A simple enough requirement, I even have a design that has been in use since the early 70's on the ssystem - eexcept that nobody makes thee cores anymore. So I need a new design ... and there seems to be nowhere that can help me do it. We have contacted firms all over the U.K. that do custom design. None of them can do it. We have asked electronics lecturers - none of them can do it. We have looked in text books - they all say how to wind the things, but tactfully avoid mentioning how to match input-output to 50 ohms. This seems to be the major sticking point. Help !
