(For what it's worth, possibly but not necessarily equal to what it cost)... Your fix sounds eminently reasonable to me. The choke might be for RFI and spike protection. Finding a better choke (same inductance, lower series R) might be still better, as shunting the existing choke will reduce the inductance as well as the series resistance. The only penalty then may be the cost of the choke, which is probably not a problem if viewed as part of the cost of the upgrade. Shucks, even buying a heftier power supply would be a cheap way to get a 1MB ST, starting from the current $495 price of the 520! -John Sangster jhs@mitre-bedford.arpa
