RE: Is this an optimal PS for my first build?

Larry hi,

Here's my take on the PS.
As a starting point:
C2, 50uf - 100uf
C3, 50uf
C4, 30uf - 50uf
L1,L2 are fine but L3 needs to be bigger say 40H(DCR may be an issue with this size choke) or so, as the FE is drawing only around 30mA. 1.5H will act as a resistor in this position.
More current - lower Henry and less current more Henry for the chokes.
You'll need a couple of different cap values (uf) for fine tuning.
I too prefer more H and less uf.
I would take L3,C4 directly off C3 before the OPT CT feed.

Enjoy,
Wheeze
