 Neither did I until I wound one, Carl. When the wire gets warm it lengthens and becomes slightly loose on the form. When the choke is warm, this looseness allows the rattling sound during voice modulation. cheerz

 Thanks to all who answered my wire ga. question.!!
   I took off the old wire , compared it to my spools of 24-26-28-30
ga. and
decided that 26 looked like the best replacememt . So , I rewound the
choke
with 26 ga.and will see how good it is when I finish the power supply
replacement .
   Thanks again to all.!!!
