I might suggest that folks do not neglect that the RF may be getting into the keyboard, causing its microcontroller to crash. Remember that we live in an "Everything is a computer" world. - Brendon KK6AYI On Sun, Nov 26, 2017 at 10:22 AM, Jim Brown wrote: > Good

Good advice, Kevin, especially winding as many turns as practical.  I wouldn't add the extension unless a choke without it didn't solve the problem. 73, Jim K9YC On 11/26/2017 8:52 AM, Kevin Stover, AC0H wrote: The mix of the toroid's used does matter. Mix 31 is best. Here is what I did
