Another important point. With any ferrite used for suppression, 
RESONANCE is the SWEET spot, and any ferrite that's GOOD for suppression 
will yield a VERY low circuit Q. Values on the order of 0.5 are typical 
for Fair-Rite  #31 and #43. That means the resonance will be VERY broad 
(typically covering a frequency ratio of 3:1 or 4:1 for decent 
suppression, and up to 8:1 for #31 below 5 MHz).
