Rudy,

The #52 mix is readily available in size "240" toroids and makes a 
useful choke for the higher HF bands. Take a look at the performance of 
11 turns on two stacked FT240-52 cores; it's the eleventh line on this 
chart:

And here's the detail:

It achieves Rs>5000 Ohms from 10Mhz thru 28MHz, and Rs>8000 Ohms from 
12MHz thru 21MHz.
