Simple Dipole Feed Line Choke - RG8X - RFI Range: 1-100 MHz
Product Details
MPN: EFFLC-240

Simple Dipole Feed Line Choke for 1/4" coax (1.8-61 MHz)

The simplest, most cost effective feed line choke is a ferrite ring installed as shown in the picture (at the antenna feed point).

Improves antenna pattern by preventing your dipole from becoming a tripole

Prevents pesky coax braid radiation and RFI

for best results use multiple turns through center

Use one choke for each antenna feed line - take a 3 foot piece of G-8X (part# RG8X-3) and wrap 10-12 turns thru center for a good feed line choke.


Mobile RFI kits work two ways: They suppress RFI from on board computers and other sensing/control devices in your vehicle that may cause your radio to be a VICTIM of RFI, and second they suppress RFI generated by your radio as a SOURCE which may affect your on board computers or other devices.  Mobile operations of HF radios (1-30 Mhz) tend to experience more RFI effects than VHF/UHF mobile stations.  If you have both HF and VHF installations in your vehicles, you may need both kits.

To address separate solutions we have developed two separate RFI kits: one for HF (1.8-300 MHz) mobile installations and another for VHF/UHF (30-1000 MHz) mobile installations.  Each kit uses the appropriate ferrite mix for the frequency range desired.
