There are snap on chokes available.  Radio Shack has some smaller ones but
there are larger ones available which will even fit RG8 cable so there ought
to be something out there which would fit the serial cable for the QSY'er.
However, I would hope John Hansen would look at the problem and bypass
things to a degree where this won't be a concern in the future.

Take care all and very 73.

I was thinking much the same thing.  But aren't the data cables for
that thing some kind of serial cable?  Probably not a job for the
faint of heart or one doubtful of his soldering skills to remove the
connector from it and run it through some ferrite beads.

Another pet peeve of mine.  WHy not just rf harden stuff that we know
is going to be used in environments where rf isgoingto be a fact of
life <g>.
