Transceiver RFI Kits

 

sleeve balun   45 degrees gif - Transceiver RFI Kits

Palomar 1:1 feed line choke kits are current baluns (split output) or ununs (coax output). They consist of several models with 5-15 large ferrite beads that slip over the coax (but will not slip over a connector). Also included are three lengths of shrink tubing to enclose the balun and hold the beads in place on the cable. They work from 1.8-300 MHz (see impedance table for each product for measured choking impedance levels for 5-15 beads) and allow use of full power rating of the coaxial cable at an SWR of 1:1. No tools are required for installation, just a source of heat to shrink the tubing using a heat gun, lighter, matches.

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.
