Hi folks
The Waller Flag is a high performance antenna, however the station should be
well grounded. Using toroid chokes it is possible to know down common mode
noise.
N8PR is working hard to clean all the unwanted noise on his station here in
Fort Lauderdale. Pete station is very close to 50KW BC AM station. Lots of
choke still need to be installed, however the initial results are very
interesting.
Pete has a magnet loop and on the video I uploaded to YouTube shows some
competition between WF vertical and horizontal.
One of the last layer of noise removed was common mode noise coming from the
rotor cable. Pete demonstrate on the video how the impact of a choke on the
rotor cable. If you have other strong noises you won't see the same result
because first you need to remove the top layer of common mode noise.
I hope you guys enjoy Pete's video.
