Subject: Re: [TowerTalk] [Bulk] Re: BALUN revisited again
It is difficult to make a single choke for 40 to 6m but it is easy to
put two in series on the feedline. The K9YC tutorial has designs for 40
to 10m and 6m. I like using multiple type 43 or 31 small clamp ons for
VHF, see the appendix for the recommendations.
Also, G3TXQ has a nice summary chart for chokes at

### since his whips are only 17 ft each, he only has 34 ft to play with.
IE: 20-6m. The ideal 20-6m balun has already been designed and is
available.

6000-8600 ohms of RS is nothing to sneeze at. This will totally eliminate
any
feedline radiation. It will also drop your noise level on RX..by a
bunch...like a whole bunch.
This one is an absolute killer http://myantennas.com/wp/product/cmc-230-5k/
