Sorry if this has been asked and answered previously, but I don’t find it in a check of the archives.
I’ll soon have an aluminum entry panel in my shack for all entering TX and RX lines (as well as rotator lines and misc control cables). The panel is copper-strapped to ground rods fifteen feet away, and to station ground. My beverages have common mode chokes near the antennas, followed by 250-500 ft of RG6 coax to the entry panel. (TX antennas are also choked, near their feedpoints.) If I were to add further common mode choking at the shack end of the beverage coaxes, where should such choking best be applied – to the RG6 cables on the outside, or the shack side, of the entry panel? Tnx, /Bill, K2PO Portland, Oregon _________________ Searchable Archives: http://www.contesting.com/_topband - Topband Reflector
