What's the difference between using LMR-400, or BuryFlex with six 12" 
dia Loops equally spaced, compared to bundling the same size loops into 
a single bunch
or for that matter, grouping any coax together rather than equally 
spaced loops?
It'd lower the resonant frequency, but other than that (and looking 
neater), what about the choke's characteristics?
Would it narrow the range of high impedance?  Lower, raise, or leave the 
maximum impedance unaffected?
