Quick question:

Is there any reason to keep this "Arcs-a-lot" 4231J Filter Choke?

Aside from its potential as a workbench paperweight, I can't see a reason to keep it but I thought I'd post to ask.

Thanks all...

Consider it trashed. Thanks again to all who assisted.

I'll be lurking and learning, but I hope to post more in the future. It's a great phorum. Be well and stay safe, everybody...

I see no one answered your question about the choke. You did the right thing - if the old choke was bad, the trash can is the proper place for it.

Many thanks for taking the time to respond, Ron.

I figured as much, but wasn't sure...

Best Regards...

That's where "so it goes" really fits Icon_smile
People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
