If it were my system, I would use an air core choke like you posted and
ground the feedline where it reaches earth.
The nice thing is you can install the choke right at ground level with no
ill effects at all.
Cheap, simple, and clean. It will work as well as anything else you can do
and be very reliable.

Thanks to all who responded.
One of the suggestions was to wrap about 40-45 turns of RG8X mini on a
PVC
core with a diameter of 4 inches....lightweight and easy. Part two was
to
ground the braid of the feeder line coax at the point where it reaches
ground level.
What do you think?
