I am using a mix of two products also:
1) the myantennas CMC-0510-R. Being rx-only, Danny was able to get really really good choking impedance down low to 500khz. Most amateur transmit versions drop off rapidly below 3.8 or perhaps 1.8 mhz, so for rx-only, I think the myantennas rx version is ideal up to about 15 mhz or so. Still usable higher up, but I did this too:
2) I followed that up with about 5 MFJ-700-A4 snap-ons to my RG8X / lmr 240 just for a little extension higher up. And an MFJ 915 at the shack end. But yeah, winding multiple turns through a core is the most effective.
Sure I could have followed up with another choke with a different mix for higher frequencies, but this seems sufficient for now. I might replace the shack end with another 0510-R, but for now I'm happy.
