Jim, I have experienced the same and done the same, but several times I was surprised to see the CMC effects return. So, I figured the idea might be doing something good for the RF on the line that was laying on the ground, but I always wondered about the line going up to the antenna.


I've even see CM chokes seem to work fine, and a while later they were back making problems.


I guess it's like Homer says...sometimes you're lucky and sometimes you're not.


For years I tended to discount their effectiveness with so many different ideas, with everyone saying my idea works best. Then I got my Sirio Gain Master and I saw a choke really working as it should. It never failed me in that regard.
