1/2″/12.7mm max Cable Size Chokes

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.

Testimonial:

KI7AY
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!


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.
