5:1 CUBE™ Unun – Model CU-5-1500 (50:250 Ohm, 1.8-61 MHz, 1.5KW PEP)
Application. For traveling wave, end fed or portable 20-31 foot vertical antennas the 5:1 unun makes a good transformer for converting 50 ohm coax to a 250 ohm feed point. If you use the antenna on multiple bands, the feed point impedance may not always be 250 ohms and use of the unun at high (>350 ohms) or low (<100 ohms) will require reduced power input or the unun may have its power ratings exceeded and damage to the unun may occur. The (5:1 conversion ratio will change for loads other than 250 ohms unbalanced.
Typical application:
Also available as a balanced output – CB-5-1500

Model SLO-1/2 family of chokes are for use with ½” coax cable like RG-8, RG-213, 9913, LMR-400 and similar cables up to ½” diameter – works on all cable impedances (50, 62, 75, 90 ohms etc). 80-6 meters.Choose SLO-1/2 (5 beads) or for extended choking, choose SLO-1/2E (10 beads) or for super extended choking choose SLO-1/2SE (15 beads).
Select chokes with minimum of 500 ohms at your frequency of interest for best results or upgrade to our CUBE(TM), Super Choker(TM) or Maxi-Choker(TM) chokes up to 10,000 ohms choking.
Select 5 bead version for 80-2 meters use; 10 bead version for 160-6 meter use, 15 bead version for even higher choking power on 160-20 meter frequencies. Power rating is same as coax cable used power rating. Protective heat shrink included with beads and instruction manual.
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.
The 5 bead, 1/2" model was previously part # BA-8

Wanted to let you know that I was having a problem with RFI on 40m, but immediately after installing your Slip On Coax Feed Line Choke -1/2"/12.7mm cable, 1.8-300 MHz on a new RG-213 jumper between the IC-9100 and tuner, IT WENT COMPLETELY AWAY!
