What SP does this choke go into?

Got this fro eBay

Looks like it might go into a SP600.  Anyone know what the current specs are?

Hmmm.  It looks a little different then the SP600 choke.  I have an SP 600 on the floor right here.  That radio used TWO of them side by side.  I looked through the SP600 manual for you. No ratings listed. According to a website, Its 20HY at 115ma..

Looks like one from as SP-210 or 400 with the remote power supply

Good - so I have a spare.  Wonder how much current it will handle.  Hmmm  a mod reactor?

Yes, that choke is for any of the SP-400 series and older that used the external  power supply.

To find the current rating check the manual for the parts list of a '400 easly found on the net...

Way back when, IE, in the late 40's, early 50's you could find all the P.S. parts for the SP-200 series surplus receivers in the various surplus houses for pennies on the doller value of that stuff.
I actually bought a BC-1004 with the spare parts kit back then... Can't remember what happened to it but it was a great receiver back then...

If you attempt to try it as a mod reactor, be sure to isolate it above ground!  I dought the insulation will stand much more than 1kv even though it is potted...

I am showing 100MA.  Other sources are saying 115.
