Hello, Tomm -- L/R parasitic suppressor networks typically have roughly 
the same reactive ohms at the anode's self-resonance as their resistive 
ohms.   For example, a pair of 3-500Zs typically have an anode 
resonance of c. 120MHz.  Thus, for a 100-ohm suppressor R, 140nH 
(XL=100-ohms) would be roughly optimal.   For use with a 50-ohm 
suppressor R, L-sup would be c. 70nH.
- note - In the above example, the 100-ohm suppressor would give more 
VHF suppression, but it would run much hotter at 29MHz. Parasitic 
suppressor design is basically a balancing act between adequate 
reduction of VHF gain and a meltdown at 29MHz.
- cheers
