Study what Steve and I have written independently about this. His on the link he posted recently, and mine in my RFI tutorial. There is no question that a high resistive impedance is a far better solution than pure reactance, which is what that coil of coax approximately is. While this has not been well known in the ham community, it has been well known by those who make and use ferrite chokes for suppression for at least 60 years. I've found references that old to it in publications.
