Re: Ameritron Plate Chokes


 

It is probably because of the paperwork blizzard to send something when customs are involved. It appears to be different for each country. I personally have only sent things to Canada and Australia. Canada was easy via the postal service. But it was a mountain of paperwork to send a collector car to Australia (via ship). And, then just to send a spare set of keys and car history paperwork via the post/mail for the car, it was amazing how much paperwork was required--besides the amazing cost for just a large envelope.

Is it because you just can't see us from up there...?

I don't think it's an ITAR issue......

What are the issues with Ameritron Plate Chokes?

I have used an RF Parts look alike for several amplifier projects.

More chokes here


Unfortunately, RF-Parts now lists these parts as "No longer available for export."
When I worked for a US Defense Contractor, I found that Great Britain, Australia, and New Zealand were exempt from these restrictions.
It may be worth an inquiry to see if RF-Parts will recognize this.

Note: the RFC3 plate choke resonates at 10 MHz, and the Ameritron High Power Tube Amplifiers are not specified to run on the 10 MHz (30 Meters) band.

Does anyone know if Ameritron have resolved the issues with their spare parts plate chokes?

I would be interested in purchasing a couple if they are not going to burn up.
