Andrea,

Not to dimish anything Ron said, I should point out that a value of 3.7 is a 
rarity.  The standard 5% values have significant digits of 33, 36, 39, 43, 
47 and 51 for the value range in question.  Expect a standard value unless 
you know it is a precision or 1% value part (and that fact is usually stated 
in the parts list) and you will seldom be incorrect.

All that said, you very likely have the correct 4.7 uH choke.

73,
Don W3FPR
