Ferrites are notoriously non-linear, and thinking of them in linear terms is liable to lead to disappointment. Look at the manufacturer's data before you come to any conclusions regarding how any of them behave. 73, Tom Donaly, KA6RUH 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. Fortunately for us, the flux density decreases as frequency increases, all else being equal. Also, many ferrites which are commonly used for common mode chokes (current baluns), EMI filters, and the like will get hot enough to explode before the flux density gets anywhere near saturation.
