Default Ferrite Chokes: What is the maximum impedance that can be obtained?

Good advice. In antenna applications, we need to strive to keep the flux
density low enough that ferrites behave essentially linearly. If we
don't, harmonic generation will result.

============================
A question : Is the above the reason why current baluns wound on a
ferrite toroid with ,say, a total of 10 windings , can be best made by
having 5 windings wound in 1 direction and the other 5 in the opposite
direction ?
