So for most of the dipole based antennas (including Yagis), you
can use 6 turns of 4" diameter coils in the coax, to make an inductive
loop that is supposed to prevent current from moving down the outer
braid (non-radiating).

6 turns is probably not enough inductance to do much choking on 160m
or 80m.

If the dipole is non-resonant, 6 turns of coax may have very little
effect on any HF frequency.
