[Collins] Re: Need 516F-2 replacement choke source

[pete wokoun, sr.]

I built up a 516F-2 'equal' power supply a while back and had concerns also with that resonant choke circuit and limited choke breakdown voltage.  I don't think that original resonant choke filter works all that well; I found a swinging choke worked much better.  You can read about my design considerations as well as voltage comparisons here:
