Reduce Common Mode Current (CMC) with a Easy to Build Choke

Post author By admin
Post date September 26, 2021

Common Mode Current can really mess with RFI and cause interference in the shack. In addition, you could also be receiving unwanted interference on the coax outer shield.

In this video I show how I built myself an easy CMC choke using a toroid and RG-58 coax.
