 Millihenery  Microhenery is the terms used depending on the application of 
a particular circuit.

What I have not seen for a long time is the old   J.W. Miller  coil winding 
device. maybe at a Antique radio swap maybe.

 Sorry,

  their search engine does not allow that without a previous browser
 session.  Just go to http://www.digikey.com and enter 2.2mH choke in the
 search window.  Select fixed(7 items).
 there are a few to pick from.

RE: [Repeater-Builder] Did measurement of inductors change???

2004-12-24 Thread JOHN MACKEY

OK, a night's rest  a fresh view can do wonders!!

Looking at the Allied catalog, I see that they list ALL chokes in uH
(micro-henries). 

As previously stated, I need a 2.2 mH choke.

Looking near the end of thier list, I found a listing for 2.2K!!

I guess I thought it would say 2200 uH or 2.2 mH  I wasn't paying close
enough attention to realize how they were using that K.

I'm embarrased.

thanks to everyone!

 John, 
 Those chokes are a lot smaller than what you need, they are specified in
 microhenrys, the mh you need is millihenrys.

For the Newark online catalog use 2200 u henries or
2200 microhenries.  That is the same as 2.2
milihenries.
