Subject: [TowerTalk] Resistor Across a Choke Balun
<But I want to put a resistor across the antenna side to drain off any
<static that develops across the un-grounded element. The A4 is a
<balanced feed with not beta or gamma match. Just 2 isolated halves of
<the driven element.
<Thanks, 73, Jim W7RY
## A 50 uh solenoid choke would work..and not series resonate on any ham
band....typ resonates around 40 mhz.
## 16-22 ga magnet wire, wound on a toroid would also work. Then you could
probably achieve > 50 uh, and still not series resonate on 20-10m.
## The choke could be wired directly across the feed point of the ant.
