Default Coax Choke For Receiving Antenna ?



If transmitting, a choke can keep stray RF off the outside of the coax
shield. There's not much point to one on a receiving antenna.

How about for keeping common mode noise from the house reaching the antenna?
Of course this is better accomplished by a 1:1 isolation transformer nearer
the RX.
