Rip open one of those impedance matching baulins and remove the binocular core. Clean out the wiring in the core. Take some thin gauge enameled wire and start winding. I'm sure you're not using high powered stuff, so something simple should work. Here's a website about building power splitters for ham radio stuff: http://www.dxing.info/equipment/rolling_your_own_bryant.dx This is some Japanese guy who does ham. This link has more info about winding: http://www.intio.or.jp/jf10zl/fb801.htm At low power (below saturation), ferrite core transformers have really good bandwith when properly terminated. Even if you only get close to the frequency response you need, "tweaking" or "peaking" with variable capacitors should give you a good flat response.
