Hi, all.

This is probably self evident, and maybe I've done it the only way possible, 
but could someone tell me how to most effectively use the rectangular Radio 
Shack RF chokes for dealing with RFI?

I guess I'm asking this question basically because my strategy doesn't seem 
to get any results whenever I try it.

What I do is open the top of the choke, wind the wire through the bottom of 
the choke, and then close it up again.

If there's some other way to use these chokes, please enlighten this 
sometimes slow learner.  (grinning widely here)

If you don't recall what the Radio Shack RF chokes are like, they are 
rectangular in shape, with magnets on the inside.  You open the latch on the 
top, and then close it when you're done winding wires around it.

Hope this somewhat convoluted e-mail makes sense.
