Hi folks,

Playing around with a field strength meter, I found that I have some RF 
near the rotator control box.
My rotator is a Ham-IV. Cables going straight from tower to the box.

What would be the best and easier way to avoid this?

- Adding rf chokes to each leg of the control wire, prior to entering 
the shack?
- Winding the whole cable thru a ferrite core?

73 and thanks,
