Hi John,

Thanks for that. It all seems to make sense.

Would it be correct to say that they're not really baluns at all but rather
simply common-mode chokes reducing RF currents in the feeder braid? I think
you said as much in your last post; just trying to get a handle on it...

Would it make sense to attach the feeder braid to a 'good' RF ground
immediately prior to the choke? I.e at the far end of the feed from the TX
point of view but before the choke.

Best,

Paul M3CRQ :-)
