If the antenna needs a choke*, put it at the antenna.

*Some don't, for example a gamma matched antenna, which is unlikely on a triband Yagi.

A couple questions, Would it do any good to put a CM choke on my tribander if the 
coax is then connected to a remote coax switch with other unprotected antennas, or 
should the choke be on the coax leaving the switch for the shack?  But then the 
coax is bundled with other unprotected cables. Is it necessary at all if the cables 
are direct buried for 100 feet?De Dick NY1E
