Ryan: Most people wind or buy coil stock and cut it to length. Power supply
chokes (iron core) can be wound, but are usualy purchesed. Most RFC chokes
are small enough to wind on a resistor body and not purchesed. As you did
not give the size of choke neaded I can't be much help. Small toroid cores
can be found at 'Radio Shack" if you know what you are in nead of. Wire
wound resistors serve as RFC if you know the size you nead. I use 1K 100w ww
resistors as 220 uH Rfc coils.
