1/4″/6.4mm max Cable Size Chokes

For use with RG-58, RG-6, RG-59, LM-240 and similar size cables – all cable impedances, 160-6 meters. Choke diameter 0.6 inch. Requires 9-1/2 inches of cable for installation of SLO-1/4.Choose SLO-1/4 (5 beads) or for extended choking, choose SLO-1/4-10 (10 beads) or for super extended choking choose SLO-1/4-15 (15 beads).Use SLO-1/4 on RG-6 to stop RFI on cable/satellite systems.


Select chokes with minimum of 500 ohms at your frequency of interest for best results or upgrade to our CUBE(TM), or Super Choker(TM) or Maxi-Choker(TM) chokes up to 10,000 ohms choking

Use on RG-6 coax to stop RFI on cable/satellite systems.

Select 10 bead version for 160 meter use, 15 bead version for even higher choking power.

Snap On and Slip on Feed line chokes available in sizes to fix cables with outside diameters of 1/4", 3/8", 1/2", 3/4", 1" - check website for other size options.

This product was previously named BA-58

Palomar Engineers offers a variety of impedance transformers configured as Baluns (balanced coax to unbalanced load) or Ununs (unbalanced coax to unbalanced load) for  matching typical 50 ohm feed line impedances to antenna or other load impedances.

We specify impedance ratios as an output to input ratio where the output (or load) is given first and the input is given second (e.g. 100:50 (2:1) would mean a 100 ohm output and a 50 ohm input; a 25:50 (1:2) would mean a 25 ohm load and a 50 ohm input).  Most all products use a 50 ohm input unless otherwise specified.

We have products that are available as kits for the do-it-yourself (DIY) person or fully assembled and tested units for the “Plug & Play” crowd.

Our impedance transformers are available using two different topologies: Binocular cores or  toroid cores with multiple turns for increased effectiveness and wide band frequency transformations.  We utilize single and multiple core transformers using high order windings when needed to extend product performance.

We rate the power ratings as watts PEP (Peak Envelop Power) with standard duty cycles for various modes. To determine the PEP rating required for your needs, see: Choke & Transformer Power Ratings
