What would happen if I just use a common standard choke of something 
between 100 and 500 uH?
Several remote circuits even suggest values up to 2.5 mH.
I intend to use this for remote switching of beverage antennas primarily 
for the AM broadcast band, preferable also for the tropical shortwave 
broadcast bands. No transmitting anywhere around the listening post. Just 
listening.
