[RFI] MFJ-856 oddity

[N1BUG]

Thanks Tom,

I've been thinking about that. I'm trying to figure out what is the 
best common mode choke I can do without starting all over on the 
mods. I have about 7.5 inches of RG-142B/U coax exposed between the 
driven element and attenuator. By putting beads over that I guess I 
could get about 1800 ohms or so. I'll get some beads on my next 
Mouser order and see if that makes any difference.

73,
Paul
