A large ID clamp-on RF current transformer

Earlier this year I posted a description of a simple clamp-on RF current transformer.  Since that time I have updated the design with a much larger ID and the core held in a spring-clamp that allows easy on/off in the field.  The following is an update of the earlier post: Download Current transformer 2 .  File size = 460 kB.
