How can I test how well a choke balun is performing? I know how to test a
transformer balun, but am cluless as how I can compare several different
choke balun approaches.


I have a toroidal pick-up coil slipped over my coax in the
shack to monitor the magnitude of common-mode currents.
That tells me how chokes, etc., are performing.
