I've just finished winding two 17-turn RG-400 common mode chokes on #31
cores. My thought is to series-connect these for adequate power
handling at the base of an inverted L on 160M.
My question is, where in this lash-up do I connect the shield of the
RG-400 to the ground radial system - at the SO-239 where the feedline
comes into the box (before the chokes) , or at the end of the second
choke that connects to the inverted L, or ???
