Rob,

No, it doesn't annoy me; and I apologise if I have given offence by pressing the point too much.

It's just that I find a disappointing lack of understanding within the ham community about the properties of the various types of choke, and it isn't helped by some of the literature on the subject; Jim's paper is a notable exception. The result is, perhaps, that I force the issue more than is polite - forgive me!

73,

Re, flux, Z and heating with regard to good design you are correct.
But there are many bad ferrite choke designs for sale.  I happen to
know that my solenoid made of 213 did what I wanted and it did not
heat.  I hope this does not annoy you too much.
