Another point should be mentioned: Many inexpensive RF products use floating BNC connectors (those with shells that are insulated from the bulkhead in which they are mounted). These are virtually guaranteed to be common-mode leaks, and should be avoided like the plague. Nobody will admit to this in the specifications, but where photos are shown in the ads, one can often tell by inspection.
Remember, folks, that electricity does not go through wires- it travels in dielectric space. Only the *current* actually goes through wires. Current alone does not carry energy- it is only a "side effect" manifestation of the magnetic field component of the EM fields in the vicinity.
