I've got several chokes, 1:1, and 4:1 baluns from Balun Designs -
excellent products.

All,
As many of you have read and are probably tired of hearing, I am
chasing down my RF ingress issues into my Flex 5000a, which seem to be
even acting up on 40 meters and above now.
As part of my potential solution, I will be purchasing a isolation
choke. I had decided on a product, when a friend of mine pointed to
another product that is almost 1/3 the cost. Now I do believe in the
old adage that you get what you pay for.
I was on the phone with Bob from Balun Designs. He suggested a dual
core 1115DU. The cost is $79.00 plus shipping. The item has great
characteristics as far as SWR, line loss and choking impedance from
160-10 meters.
My friend in a QSO last night suggested the MFJ-915. This item is only
29.99. It consists of a bunch of ferrite beads. As it is MFJ, I do not
expect them to publish any specifications or sweeps from a spectrum
analyzer.
Hs anyone dealt with either one of these products or both? Can you
give me your honest opinion on the performance versus cost analysis?
Thank you and 73
Robert
