Thanks to all who responded. One of the suggestions was to wrap about 40-45 turns of RG8X mini on a PVC core with a diameter of 4 inches....lightweight and easy. Part two was to ground the braid of t

Bill - An effective common-mode choke can be made with 17 turns of RG58-coax wound on to an Amidon FT240-31 core. See: www.karinya.net/g3txq/chokes/ GL - Steve WB6RSE What do you think? Bill K4XS ___

It's not an Amidon core, it's a Fair-Rite core. It's a LOT cheaper when you buy from a Fair-Rite distributor. See Appendix One of k9yc.com/RFI-Ham.pdf 73, Jim K9YC _________________ Topband Reflector

If it were my system, I would use an air core choke like you posted and ground the feedline where it reaches earth. The nice thing is you can install the choke right at ground level with no ill effec

My pdf calls for a lot more turns than that for 160M, but it ain't broke, don't fix it. :) 73, Jim _________________ Topband Reflector Archives - http://www.contesting.com/_topband

W0BTU was kind enough to include a link to his inverted-L EZNEC model so I added that to a thread over on eHam which discusses using a "dual-band autopilot" matching network, in this case using the i

No. I wrote badly. Measure out two 5 feet lengths of enameled wire. Tape them together (a single wrap of tape every 5 inches or so) and wind that pair of wires 16 turns around a single core. Connect

That is the design that I was originally going to use, except that I would change it slightly because I use all 75 ohm coax. Anyway, what is the advantage over one made with coax? Better bandwidth, I

Yes, the advantages of THHN are better bandwidth, and a closer Zo match to a high dipole. Jerry Sevick wrote about Zo of parallel wire line chokes, and had established the Zo values I noted. Many yea
