It is 200W period in the USA, no SSB or AM allowed; only CW, and data.
I have no idea if my 76PA works there and dont care either.
As far as 160 Ive put that choke in several Amp Supply LK-800A's as well as
the souped up ones with 3CPX tubes and the LK-550 external transformer.
Later transformers had both voltages available.
No heating problems when testing into my BIG BIRD load on CW and SSB.

I believe you will find the US regulation is 200W PEP on 30M , according
to the ARRL band plan cheat sheet I have, no difference in the context
of this discussion however

We can't run more than 100 watts on 10 MHz in the USA. So no need to have
it work there.

Carl,
Did you notice any effect on 10MHz. When I put an Ameritron choke in my
78, which I agree fits just fine, it was okay but went bang on 10Mhz. Had
I the time then I would have investigated moving it to resonate somewhere
else but in stock form mounted in the 78 I measured resonance at 10.5MHz,
too close to 10.1MHz to work I think.
As a more general question, where would be good to place a single choke
for 160-10 9 band coverage, around 12 MHz?

Ive had no problems from squeezing the Ameritron choke into Alpha
76/78's etc which is about as tight as you can get.

## They can be mounted either vertically or horizontally, both mounting
schemes work.
Typ vert mounting is used. Either way B+ has to be fed to the base of
the plate choke.
Also, bypass caps have to be installed at base of plate choke. Also,
you dont want to mount
a plate choke parallel to a sidewall, nor the chassis. The stray C will
screw up the choke,
and shift its series resonances... down in freq.... which could easily
cause catastrophic results.
If you do mount parallel to sidewall or chassis, choke should be at
least 3 x its diameter away
from surrounding metal. Vert mounting solves these issues.

Out of curiosity, is there a particular reason that HV chokes are
typically mounted vertically and not horizontally?

30-60 rpm works good.
