Chokes after the voltage doubler

The RM 9 MKII had two chokes after the voltage doubler, one for each channel. Following the chokes were two 1000mfd 250vdc caps wired in series, which yielded 500 mfd at 500vdc. Roger Modjeski did not reveal where he purchased the chokes, but he did tell me that the DCR was 5 ohms. Given the size, they could not have been more than .3 henry (300 millihenry). The additional chokes and caps did make a noteworthy improvement. This power supply improvement and fusing each output tube are the differences between the RM 9 and RM 9 MKII.
