How did this compare to the 6 turns of coax?  What there the measurements
for that?

ldl- I measured a 10 bead 
ldl- choke with my
ldl- Autek RF Analyst and it shows an impedance of a few 
ldl- hundred to more than
ldl- a thousand ohm, depending on the frequency, so it should 
ldl- work for this
ldl- purpose. And at a fraction of the price of a commercial balun!

ldl- 
ldl- I am getting ready to put up a Cushman A743 I picked up. The
ldl- instructions call for  6 loops of coax 6" in dia at the 
ldl- antenna feed
ldl- point. I have heard it is better to slip some ferrites on the coax.
ldl- Advise? Opinions? Suggestions? Lloyd Godsey  KK7IZ 1315 N.
