Basics: Correct or Incorrect?, Page 5

• A multiband coupler will have reduced matching at

both the top and bottom of the frequency range.

– Yes!

•

A coupler in a radio that is specified to match 3:1

•

A coupler in a radio that is specified to match 3:1

SWRs matches all 3:1 SWRs and not much else.

– No!

• Couplers do not exist at VHF and above.

– No, but construction is done with transmission line

sections and not lumped components.
