CB Radio Generic Mobile Transceiver RFI/Noise Reduction Kit, RFI Range: 20-60 MHz, Works on all brandsProduct DetailsMPN: RFI-CB-MOBILECountry/Region of Manufacture: United StatesFilter Power Rating (PEP watts): 500Common Mode Attenuation (db): <=25 dBRFI Suppression Range (MHz): 20-60 MHz# Ferrite Filters: 2Palomar Engineers RFI Filter Kit for CB Radio Radio Transceivers from 20-30 MHz uses ferrite rings for the DC power supply and the coax to the antenna.
BUY THIS KIT NOW TO SOLVE YOUR RFI/EMI NEEDS! WORKS WITH ALL BRANDS (Cobra, DAS, Midland, Uniden etc.) OF CB/HAM/COMMERCIAL RADIO RIGS in 20-60 MHz range.
Purpose
The RFI kit is designed to be installed on your radio transceiver to reduce Radio Frequency Interference (RFI) caused by common mode current on the outside of the coax braid at the output of your radio and on the DC power supply cable.
This kit will help reduce or eliminate:
1. “Hot mic” RFI caused by poor grounding of antennas or common mode currents from linear amps feeding unbalanced (coax fed) antennas without baluns/line isolators.
2. RFI to neighbor’s electronic devices including audio/video systems, computers, telephones, garage door openers, etc.
3. RFI to your other radios, audio/video systems, computers, telephones, etc.
A side benefit is a reduction in noise floor in your receiver depending on the amount of noise being introduced by common mode currents (which are blocked/reduced by the chokes in this kit).
These chokes use a special mix of ferrite core material that is effective in suppressing radio frequency interference from Ham Radio amplifiers.
Included are the following chokes and installation guidelines:
DC Input: F240 Ring – 3-7 turns of DC power cable - sized for smaller plugs
RF Input/Output: F240-31 ring - wrap 6 turns of RG8X size cable near the back of the radio
Also make sure you connect a good RF ground to the transceiver ground post.
For additional RFI suppression, use a MC-1-500-50 mini feed line choke at the antenna feed point to suppress common current on the coax feed line during transmit and a CMNF-500-50 Coax Noise Filter to reduce common mode noise during receive operations.
If you use a switching power supply for base operation, consider the RFI-SMPS switching power supply RFI kit.
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.

Christmas lights or yard lights with switching DC power supplies are often the RFI source and a clamp on ferrite bead on the AC AND the DC side feeding the lights is needed to help suppress the switching power supply RFI noise. Suitable snap on beads are FSB31-1/2 for the 1-250 MHz range.
We have also had reported wireless HDTV boxes, and FOSCAM and AMCREST security camera systems causing RFI to garage door remote openers. Use our Garage Door Opener RFI kit to suppress the interference to the opener (VICTIM) – you need one kit for each opener. Maximize the distance from the camera to the openers may also help. Additionally shield cable to the garage door sensors may be needed depending on severity of the camera RFI.
Obvious Tech Note: make sure your remote batteries have enough energy to activate the GDO or the signal they transmit may not be large enough to over ride the RFI signal, but a fresh battery may be able to overcome the weak RFI source and allow the GDO to operate correctly.
