Thread-topic: LF: Re: A simple ULF/MF diplexer?
Hi Stefan,

the picture makes clear what you intend to do.
A possible pitfall could be the behaviour of the 1.3H coil at 475kHz (self 
resonances).

Hi Rik,

OK, a picture tells more than 1000 words:
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/19882028/ULF/ULF_MF_Diplexer.jpg
While drawing the picture i saw that i had to correct my idea. The
transformer should be in series and i have to think about the lower
series C. Another thing is that the MF transmitter should act as a
shortcut for ULF so the transformer does not act as a (saturated) L. So
the picture is updated.

73, Stefan
