By the way, depending the diameter of the coil, line lenght, and coil position,
I'm afraid those 6 turns are not enough to have a good choke on 20m.
Expecially in cases where a choke is not on a current node, 10 ten times ratio
between reactance and 50 Ohm doesn't make at all a good one.
Somewere I've seen claimed only 6 turns over 4" is a good choke for 20m, while
it's not.
