RE: Maxing stock chokes and DHT filament transformers

So the choke you need is around 2500 turns of 4 awg wire spun on a 48" diameter spool by about 18" high.
You can play with the shape a bit to get a slightly different size if you want.

You will have to splice it every 1000 ft, unless you find some bigger rolls. 21,000 feet should do it, giving you 5 ohms @ around 10HY.

It will weigh just north of 2500 lbs so maybe make a coffee table out of it etc.
