perhaps thats what it's capable of, but you're not going to run it there are ya? Come up with a more realistic power level, and go from there. For that matter, 60 Hy will probably do you nicely, as long as the iron can handle series current through them. > 10,000 ohms = 80H @ 200 Hz I ran 2000V at 250mA for the longest time, with only 40Hy of choke, and never had a problem. the highest rating of current thrugh one of the chokes was 275mA (whiich is why I stayed down around 250mA - besides, 500w DC input is ~around~ 350~375w of carrier out... but, man the positive peaks I had then...

Voltage? No... Current? THAT's what carries the mail! 73 = Best Regards, -Geoff/W5OMR
