Though I would hazard a guess that you are operating at higher freqs than
the original poster. They mentioned FM, assuming normal FM bands, I would
assume printed inductors get unreasonably large, and discrete have
reasonable size, Q, SRF etc at the 88-108 MHz band these days. (Not that
one would want high Q for supply/ground coupling anyway and would usually
deliberately degrade Q to prevent noise peaking.)
Or do you find that you do get useful inductance from printed inductors at
100MHz-odd freqs? What sort of inductance can be achieved in reasonable
space using printed inductors and standard line/spacing of say 8/8 or 6/6?
