coax and the control cable to the tuner. The situation with
respect to common-mode currents is the same for both cables and
there should either be good common-mode chokes on each or together
into one common-mode choke. Also, distance for the control cable
isn't a problem if reasonable gauge is used and there's proper
attention to lightning/impulse protection.

The AH-4 has a control cable to the radio, so mounting at the feed point of distant antenna is not recommended. Wherever it is mounted the common-mode choke should be place on the coax to the radio AT the tuner. The AH-4 input and output is inherently unbalanced for any type of antenna, so a VERY GOOD common mode choke is needed
