    Ham radio/ looking for scrap Ferrite Chokes

    Ok so I'm starting a thread that straddles Off Topic and a Buyer Thread. Since this is a one time deal for me I decided to put it in the Off Topic area.

    So I bought a new Icom IC-7300 HF-6 meter radio. It has a touch screen like my Iphone so I like it the screen is large for ham radio its about 4.5"dia but not really large for my eyes. So I've chosen to connect it to my computer and use the 24" display of the computer.

    Its been advised that I should add Ferrite Chokes where I can to cut down on the electrical noise coming from other items in the area of my radio.

    So finally to the reason for my post today. I am looking for snap on style ferrite chokes. Yes I've tossed thousands of them in the shred pile but now I could use some. They are available on ebay, amazon etc. but I figure one or more of the members may have some on hand.

    As to quantity since I'll be paying for shipping I would choose to use a USPS Flat Rate Padded Envelope would be plenty of room for what I would like to receive.

    What sizes am I looking for? About 10-15 big enough to run the 3 wire cord from a computer through 2-3 times.



    Smaller size. About 20-30 ones that the wire from the usb cord from a keyboard or wired mouse could loop through it 2-3 times.

    If you have additional ideas or have these on hand comment in this thread or pm me.

    How much do I want to pay??? I'm thinking $20-$25 cost of shipping included. Pay via paypal or money order. 73, Mike

    ps Questions, comments about Amateur Radio welcome. m

    I AM NO LONGER LOOKING FOR FERRITE COKES. Thanks for looking 73, Mike
