Greetings- can someone provide data on their home made choke for connecting across the output of a 1 KW, 3.5 mhz , transmitter *working into 50 ohms.. The so called safety choke to prevent the HV plate voltage from appearing on the antenna in case of failure of a blocking capacitor. Normally a commercial 2.5 MHY *RFC is used. Perhaps something wound on a ferrite rod. The requirements for the safety choke are pretty tame compared to a plate choke. The impedance level around it is 50 ohms (contrast it with thousands of ohms around a plate choke), so you don't have to maintain a particularly high RF impedance. In other words, the same choke you used for the plate choke would work just fine. |
