I also don't know if this makes any difference either, but I used the square ferrite choke from Radio Shack, as I could not find a round one anywhere locally. This could be a real problem because it is in two pieces. A small gap (you have two) greatly reduces the inductance of the core. Use some tape for now to make sure the two halves are pulled tightly together for now while you order a toroid for a permanent fix. The composition of the core material should be OK. Out of curiosity, and because I can't find anything on the net that speaks directly to it, does anyone know if it's the composition/material of the core that's important, or it's magnetic strength, or some combination of both? jd Magnetics has nothing to do with it. It's the composition/material of the core. Have you taken the time to read the material I posted before? If you haven't, I suggest you do so. Well, the confusion I have arises when I see insulated wire wound around a core... Well, it had better be insulated to some extent... I'll take another look at the info you pointed me to. jd |
