Amen!

All my coax runs come in underground to both shacks. On 75 I had a severe case of "RF in the shack" ! At 1000W most of the LEDs in the shacks would light. At the legal limit, they were bright. Common mode chokes eliminated that problem.

Good engineering practice is to accomplish this with a suitable ferrite common mode choke at the feedpoint.
