just started in radio electronics and found your videos, clear concise and to the point.i like the images and diagrams that explain what you are talking about. thanks John
Hello Flux. Although not called a wave trap, I have a similar LC series, one piece "capacitor choke" connected from the B- to chassis on an AA5. I understand it's function, but I have a question on the choke portion. Is there any reason I cannot use a small, color coded inductor instead of hand winding a small coil? It's a small value in the 5uH range. I've used several turns of hookup wire in the past, but this is a tiny radio with limited space. Just wondering if I am missing something. Thanks.
