[TenTec] Source for TITAN 425 plate choke?

[Rich Hallman - N7TR]

You may want to check the space in the amp to make sure the bigger RF choke from MFJ/RF Parts will fit.   I replaced several of these in my Titan 425's and used the below with no problems and fit great.

Good Luck...Rich N7TR

I ordered one this morning online, and am just waiting for the shipping cost quote to finalize the order processing.

  We just put one of these chokes in an Alpha 76A and it works fine. I think
  the price is $20.00.
