Product Details
MPN: JC-1-1500
Country/Region of Manufacture: USA

Simple Jumper Feed Line Choke Optimized for 14-30 MHz

The simplest, most cost effective feed line choke is a ferrite ring installed as shown in the picture (at the antenna feed point) to stop feed line radiation or at the radio end of the coax to suppress common mode coax noise current on the coax braid.

Great choke for log periodics, HF beams, CB antennas and others in 14-30 MHz range

Improves antenna pattern by preventing your dipole from becoming a tripole

Suppresses pesky coax braid radiation and RFI

Reduces coax braid common mode current up to -40 dB ( 6 "S" units) on receive

Use one choke for each antenna feed line

Add a double female barrel connector to act as an "extension" of the existing coax.


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.
