Off Center Fed (OCF) Antenna Feed Line Choke for 1/4" coax (1.8-61 MHz)

Got an off center fed antenna fed with RG-8X size coax and having feed line radiation (RFI) problems?

This feed line choke will help solve the problem of feed line radiation (which causes RFI to nearby object close to you coax) as well as Improving antenna pattern by preventing your dipole from becoming a tripole

Simple to install as an extension to your existing coax feed line using a female to female barrel connector (available separately).

Install quickly, reduce your coax radiation issues and start working more DX with a better transmission (and reception) antenna pattern.

Also works with single or multi-band loop antennas using a 2:1, 4:1 or 6:1 transformer without a choke.

16:1 Baluns are useful between 750-850 ohm balanced loads where the impedance at the  end of the feed line is 800 ohms (1/2 wavelength feed line), or high impedance feeds for rhombic,  T2FD and traveling wave antennas.

16:1 Ununs are useful between coax and long wires with a load impedance near 800 ohms like a beverage antenna.  Shortwave listener antennas also can benefit with the 16:1 unun and it may provide a better match than 9:1 ununs – this means quieter noise levels and stronger signals so you can hear distance stations easier.
