I am building a new two wire beverage and have built many in the past that seemed to work okay but I am paying close attention to detail on this one. I have a couple of questions to start. Most all a

ON4UN and others suggest 15 meters I believe. Ive used 25-30' here and it does well with 5 2 wire Beverages with their ends and antenna grounds also spaced from each other by at least 30' and a few a

I don't ground the shields at the transformers. The only place they are grounded/connected together is inside the shack, at the switchbox. My beverage coax is mostly laying on the ground. A little of

But arent you in the boonies Mike with little common mode noise? I notice a few others with lots of acerage do the same but when I was enroached upon on both sides I just followed ON4UN's lead. It wo

Yes, that's right, Carl. No close neighbors, radio stations, etc. But this house is a prolific generator of RFI, and I have been getting power line noise lately. I'm not saying that there's not a cas

Of course not. A choke for 160M requires many turns on one or more #31 cores. Study k9yc.com/RFI-Ham.pdf 73, Jim K9YC _________________ Topband Reflector Archives - http://www.contesting.com/_topband

Thanks. I have actually studied your document Jim, and have recommended it to many others. :-) I used what I had here. There are several bifilar turns through some of those big #43 beads. I even hung

I don't have a good handle on RFI from fluorescents, but there are (at least) two mechanisms. One is radiation from the lamps themselves, and that can be reduced by shielding (a screen that makes a g

I only have a couple of those lamps and a bit of bypassing in the fixture knocked it down a lot. Since they are seldom on when Im at the radio its tolerable or I shut them off. The one problem I have

I'm not saying that there's not a case for suppressing common mode as you and others suggest. It all comes down to impedance ratios and signal levels. Any choke or filter is like a pi network or atte

Thanks for your thoughts. I looked at things here just now, and found that (1) unplugging my amplifier's power cord and (2) disconnecting an unused 50' run of RG-213 from my main TX antenna switch dr

Hi Mike, I hope we can all collectively rethink RFI suppression a bit. It is electrically impossible for a device to transfer *significant* common mode on 160 meters or other low frequencies without
