Default Lattice-wound RF choke replacement, 50 years later

Simple way. Wind a single layer 175uH choke on a ceramic form
with 24-26 wire. Good for 600ma and 160-10M.
I use these on all my HB from 30W to 1KW.

I'm interested.
What is the approx diameter and length of the form and approx number
of turns?

No turns depends on dia of form but the size of the form don't matter.
I use forms from fried chokes, 3/8 inch to 1 inch.
With 26 wire and 3/8 dia, expect 3 inches of winding or so then use
analyzer to get about 170uH and check for zeros around 23MHz and a
second around 33MHz. Tweak the 170uH to get the zero at 23MHz in
situ but with the PINET unhooked...
