One of the newer Alpha amplifiers has an interesting circuit. The rf choke bypasses a tap to increase the range without resonances. I expect that a few amateurs have also incorporated this feature, u

** However, it seems unlikely that enough Joules are stored to do any serious damage to a human -- even with the typical remaining charge on a 25uF or so filter C. __________________________________

My policy is - be triple careful. I like Rich's suggestion of a resistor on a "deadman" stick.You can seldom count on electrons limiting themselves to around 30 milliamps! I have an old Ham acquainta
