Well... I wasn't suggesting you were reading things wrong. I was suggesting result with RFI and coax are not "always clear".... Just like you experienced. Sorry if I gave you that idea....We agree (i think hihi)

You can measure the amount of "choke" using for example a minivna. Not many do that ...but it is easy to do. The amount of "choke" (impedance) variees more than i expected.....i mean....1 turn does make a difference ( thats why i often stated "dont read hamunivers with its ugly balun 8 turns 10cm diameter...thats wrong...I know and results can be reproduced ...so its a fact. By the way there is large influence from other things like attaching it to a mast, more then i expected.... it is rather critical. Hope that clarifies things ? 73s H.
