[IRCA] Chokes for Coax Lead-In

["John H. Bryant" <bjohnorcas@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I just read Patrick Martin's nice summation of his recent work with 
coax chokes to reduce  the pick up of both unwanted signals and local 
noise on coax lead-ins. He summed things up very well.  Maybe he or 
someone else mentioned that the article explaining the design was 
published in the IRCA bulletin several years ago and is included in 
that marvelous IRCA Reprint CD.  As it happens, the article is also 
available for download on the dxing.info website at 
http://www.dxing.info/equipment/  The article is titled "Is your Coax 
Lead-In an Antenna" and can be found on the lower left portion of 
that web page.

Great job, Patrick. I'm really glad that these inexpensive little 
things solved your problem.  I have a hard time believing that any 
DXer using coax doesn't use at least one of these between the coax 
and the receiver.... I'd not think of DXing without one, these 
days.... I need all of the DXing help that I can find, myself.
