Default Fuel tanks and SSB counterpoise.

If it acts like a choke it must be a choke. :)

Well I guess if I tried to push 30 mhz thru a 2 mhz transmitter you
could call the transmitter a choke too. But in reality it ain't and
the coil in the middle of an antenna ain't either. What you describe as
a choke is a tuning inductor, the choking is an inconsequential behavior
of the tuning at a frequency the antenna was never designed to operate
at.
