I'm sure K9YC, who knows at least 20 dB more on the subject that I do,
will have a more thorough explanation but basically the reason is that
Type 31 material has desirable loss at HF frequencies instead of only
contributing inductance. When relying only on inductance for common
mode chokes you can get undesirable resonances that actually subvert the
purpose of using them, whereas the loss in the Type 31 material gives
you the low Q performance you want and it does so across a wide
frequency range.

Back ~ 2000, I was using 77 material vs. 43 material for Ferrite chokes and I
constructed an impedance table by freq.to determined how many beads I should use on
each band. Now we talk about and use 31 material instead. What I don’t recall
is what happened to the 77 material and why 31 material has seemingly supplanted it.
I would appreciate any thoughts/comments/comparisons on this.
Tnx &73
