The trend stops rather quickly and it is easy
to have too many turns on higher bands.

After parallel resonance is reached impedance drops.

Baluns and other chokes are used in the frequency
region well above one where they can be regarded as
simple inductors. Chokes are transmission lines.
Impedance rises and falls periodically with
increasing length.
