Then wire 1-3 x 500pf ceramic doorknob caps in parallel with the 4700 pf caps.
The 500 pf caps make for an excellent higher freq bypass cap.<
You will have about 1 volt across that combination on 80m. Using 1 4700 pF cap
and 1 500 pF cap in parallel will give 3 volts: then a 50 microhenry choke and
another 4700 pf will drop this to 27mV and you have saved 1 or 2 500 pF caps
and 1 4700 pF cap and got a better result. Just adding capacitors gets to a
state of diminishing returns.
