FYI there is no control cable. All control voltages go through the coax.

Dick,

I don't think you have a problem with the choke, you have a problem with
stray RF. Have grounded the frame of the relay box? I would suggest wrapping
10 turns of the control cable on a toroid.

Hi Guys,
 I've gotten a lot of good use out of Ameritron RCS-4 Remote Coax Switches.
However, I keep smoking RFC-1 and wonder if you can recommend a Heavy Duty
replacement for RFC-1 that I'm less likely to smoke when running a KW?
Thanks!  Dick- K9OM
