How to wind an end fed halfwave autotransformer.

  Although I enjoy building and using end-fed halfwave antennas (EFHW), I dread making the autotransformer necessary to match my low impedance transceiver to the high impedance of the EFHW. However, thanks to this excellent video from Colin (MM0OPX), I have an easy-to-follow tutorial that takes me step-by-step through the entire construction process.  Colin helps you every step of the way until you're done with a sturdy, well-made autotransformer suitable for both low and high power usage.
