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. bob k5qwg 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. Dale W4OP |
