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.

Also make sure you connect a good RF ground to the transceiver ground post.

Note to Flex Radio users:  Use snap on ferrites for firewire cable, speaker cable and mic cable,  Ring ferrites for Antenna output and DC power.

For additional RFI suppression, use a feed line choke at the antenna to suppress common current on the coax feed line – see our store for feed line choke alternatives for use at the antenna.

 

If you use a linear amplifier we have RFI kits for linear amplifiers that help suppress RFI in your shack or in your neighbor’s house.
