Re: Dummy?
I built one with 18 100-ohm half-watt resistors, but with only HF in mind. I also included a crude way to measure the power. Description and pictures here: QRP dummy load - N1OVN

Re: Dummy?
Doc,
If you want an accurate 50 ohm dummy load, take a look at the Caddock 50 ohm 1% Thick Film Resistors. They are available in power ratings from 15 watts to 100 watts.

Re: Dummy?
Hi Michael,
We all need a dummy load (or several) and it's always good to know how to make your own. If you don't know how then you be a dummy for NOT asking. Good luck with your project.
73,
Bill

Re: Dummy?
I made one with 8 1/2 watt 100 Ohm resistors (2 in series 4X in parallel) connected to an SO-239 jack. Here's a copy of my old webpage on it: http://www.geocities.ws/n2uhc/dummy_load.html.

Re: Dummy?
Doc:
If you are talking about a 5 Watt maximum dummy load, one thing you could do is buy eight 100 ohm, 1 Watt carbon composition (not wirewound) resistors. Put four of them in

Hi Doc,
Any 50 Ohm NON INDUCTIVE resistor that will handle the wattage. Smaller carbon film resistors in parallel will work, for instance, a couple of 100 ohm 1 watt resistors in parallel will show 50

Re: Dummy?
I suggest soldering two 100 ohm 1 watt resistors, or four 200 ohm1/2 watt resistors in parallel to a connector. That will give you 2 watts of dissipation which will be adequate for 5 watts power for

Dummy?
I guess I'm the dummy asking this, but I haven't found a simple solution thru Google, so I thought I would ask the experts directly: what is the simplest dummy load I can make for my QRP rigs?

Re: Ozarkcon Registration NOW OPEN
Paul,
I've already received two registrations from one person that came in via PayPal on the "orders" email address. Is this what I can expect?
Thanks,
