Folks,

Given that inductors on toroid cores are used extensively in autotuners, is there any reason (assuming I choose the right size core, made of the correct material for the application and winding it with the right size wire) for not using one as a base loading inductor on a vertical antenna?  I'm talking 100 watts maximum transmitter output here.

Any down side to doing this?

Thanks and 73,
