He said it because he doesn't know what he's talking about.

There are a lot of reasons why window line is not a good idea, but it's
totally wrong to say that a common mode choke will choke the signals on window
line. I really don't understand why you would say that. The fields
generated by each wire for a signal traveling along window line oppose each
other ... there is no field to choke if the currents are equal (i.e., the line
is balanced). And if the currents are not equal, then the common mode choke
more or less forces them to be equal ... just like a common mode choke is
supposed to.

We're talking about a common mode choke, not a balun/transformer.

Actually that's not true. A lot of baluns are wound with balanced
transmission line.

Hi Bill,
Choking the window line is not a good idea - you'll choke the signals too.
Common mode chokes are mainly used for coax cables and multi-conductor
cables. I'm sure you'll get many more detailed replies from the experts.
Good Luck!
Bert, VE3NR
