Better yet, wind the coax through multiple cores following my Choke
Cookbook. Now, from the choke down, you can dress the coax any way you
like, and the choke prevents signal picked up on the coax from filling
in the nulls of the beam.

I continue to marvel at folks who will spend money on some magic box
that someone else builds rather than something they can do themselves
for a fraction of the cost.

IE: TWO CMCs required.... one at feed point.... and a second one where the
coax leaves the boom..and forms into
the rotor loop. Coax is taped to one of the booms. problem solved.
