Question
KD9TGU
I live in a HOA neighborhood. As a result, the can be no exterior antenna. The solution was an OCF Dipole in the attic.
When transmitting on the HF bands the lights that are connected to electronic dimmers will flash on and off, and the electronic thermostat to change program and settings.
I have tried using a clamshell choke on the thermostat wires to no effect.
I have not tied that on the dimmer wiring.
Is this the best way to go, or should I be looking at putting a choke at the feed point of the antenna?
Any help would be appreciated.
