TX Topper Bi Filar

This document provides instructions for winding a bifilar transformer with a 1:4 stepup ratio. It specifies using two 6-inch wires twisted together with 2-3 turns per inch for 6 total turns around a T37-43 toroid core. One wire end should be clearly marked if the wires are the same color. The completed bifilar winding is then installed according to the schematic to function as a transformer in a 40 meter band radio filter circuit.
