Jeff, First remember the number order is sometimes random, a higher number does not always reflect higher permeability. When soft iron materials are made larger than a certain physical thickness and

I appreciate the education from you and from Jim (and I'm eagerly awaiting his promised article!) I'd missed the shifting of the impedance peak downward in multi-turn suppression apps. I'd looked at

Just by chance, I happened to be designing a common mode choke for my generator over the weekend. I had a couple of FT-240-43 cores in my junkbox. Five turns gives about 490 ohms |Z| at 3.5 MHz (abou

Although it's a good idea to dissipate the incident RF power, a choke can be very effective if designed with parallel resonance at RF frequency. Series impedance will be very high (many tens of kOhms

With high imepdance antennas one needs much better chokes than with 50-Ohm antennas. I would recommend winding RG174 (or even smaller coax) on FT240-43. You must wind enough turns to position the par

Yeah, I tried a B&W line filter here for my generator problem. It had two very impressive looking 2" toroid inductors in series with each leg of the AC line and shunt caps in between (5 section LPF).

Remembering that for suppression, we want R to be large and X to be small at the frequency of the interfering signal, it would be quite helpful to see data for R and X separately. Thanks for posting

For convenience, Jeff, I just used a piece of stranded insulated wire (I think it was #16). The impedance you get a low frequencies should be the same regardless of the wire size (within reason). At
