MAXI-CHOKER Coax Line Isolator/Balun, 1-61 MHz, 1.5/3KW, SO-239 In/Stud Output, FLAGPOLE OCF, G5RV, ZS6BKW, BN4000 Replacement, Ladder Line-Coax interfaceProduct DetailsBrand: Palomar EngineersMPN: MC-1-1500LL or MC-1-3000LLCountry/Region of Manufacture: United StatesEffective Frequency Range (MHz): 1-161PEP Power Rating (watts): 1500 or 3000 to 61 MHz, 500 watts to 161 MhzChoking Impedance Range (ohms): 500-6000 (1-61 Mhz)Common Mode Attenuation (db): 20-35dbEstimated Insertion Loss (db): .25 dbInput Connector Type: SO-239 femaleOutput Connector Connector Type: Top StudsGround Connector (Y/N): optionalEnclosure Size (LxWxH inches): 8 or 12" long, 2.5 in diameterMAXI-CHOKER Features:
- Uses proprietary Multi-Mix(TM) technology for maximum choking (up to 5K ohm) and maximum bandwidth
- 1.5 KW or 3 KW PEP Option, 50 ohm SO-239 connectors In dual screw terminal output for ladder line or dipole driven element, etc. effective 1-61 MHz
- Up to -48dB common mode suppression solves tough RFI issues
- Works for all coax fed antennas from 1.8-61 MHz (160-6 meters) - excellent for multi-band beams, verticals, dipoles, off center fed antennas, tri-band beams.
- 2-5 times more choking resistance, wider bandwidth and higher power then competing filters
- great replacement choke for G5RV/ZS6BKW antennas or as a 1:1 ladder line to coax interface for Flagpole OCF type antennas with high common mode choking to isolate the coax braid from becoming part of the antenna.
- Available with ground lug/internal static bleeder option
- Excellent replacement for Hygain BN4000D balun used on beam antennas
MAXI-CHOKER feed line chokes are used to suppress common mode current carried on the outside of the coax braid which is often responsible for receiver noise and RFI in the receiver/transmitter. These chokes are very useful for suppressing RFI common mode current at the antenna feed point or at a ladder line to coax junction, like a G5RV antenna.
Note: Color may be white or black depending on on inventory at time of order. Also available with SO-239 in/Out (MC-1-1500 or MC-1-3000) or with static bleeder/ground (MC-1-1500GB or MC-1-3000GB).
