ShadeTree Mechanic, save yourself the trouble and inconvenience of winding that common mode choke.
get some ferrite to put around the coax at the feedpoint instead.
It is much easier to do, and it works better than the air wound choke.
the whole reason air wound chokes became popular was because of a misconception of a very famous chart that we have all seen online that shows the various turns and diameters of air chokes for different frequencies.
(its the one with all the red green and yellow on it)
the guy who made it only did so in order to show how much better ferrite worked, but only one of his charts made its way around the interwebs, so everyone treats it like a set of instructions for getting rid of common mode currents. It's true purpose was to show that this was not the ideal way to do that.
do yourself a favor and buy one of these kits, or order the same ferrite beads directly from Amidon and save some money.

If you had an extreme case of common mode currents at your station, you could run two of these kits at the feedpoint, but one should really be enough for most CB antenna situations.
