Please excuse a novice's ignorant questions about plate chokes.  OTOH,
maybe I'm not the only AMPS subscriber who wonders.

Is the lowest-frequency self-resonance a "parallel" resonance, i.e., such
that the impedance of the choke is very high?

Is power-amplifier operation at a parallel-resonant frequency dangerous to
the health of the choke?

I can see that operation at a _series_ resonance frequency would be bad for
the health of the choke and perhaps other components of the amp.

Tnx -Chuck
