[IRCA] 2 chokes in line with Ewe antenna




Built two chokes today and they seem to be working.  20 AM stations within 25 miles of here creates a lot of RF.  Below are local signal strengths with the balun and coax, and then with two chokes attached to the coax.

The chokes are in line with the Ewe and the Ewe is more directional.  Now I need to buy some good coax with better shielding.  .
