[Mobile-Portable] Miller Hash Chokes

Has anyone posted a good source for these hash chokes?

When they are used in the power leads for equipment
and not in the vehicle's common power wiring, they
don't have to have such huge size (6 gauge or larger)
to carry the full current of the charging system.

Coaxial capacitors are also good and may be needed
in conjunction with hash filters in the worst cases.

I use the hash chokes at the input to my VHF and UHF radios.  Gets rid of
any alternator whine.  I use one in the positive and negative DC lead.

Works great.  I've never used any chokes on the HF radios.  Never had a
problem.
