[Boatanchors] Inrush Current Limiter

[AI2Q]

Your approach is indeed innovative Brian. However, I don't think the concern
of using a diode is of any consequence!

Stay resonant es 73, AI2Q, Alex .-.-.

Hi Alex,

This is on the way to being a great idea. One tiny problem - using a single
diode on the mains side of the transformer sends a dc pulse back into the
mains. Now, from one little radio, no big deal; but if we all did this, the
power distribution authorities would get a bit upset.............
