The Terry filter I have now already has 1k resistors in it - twice
yours.
I thought that would be plenty to spoil the resonance, but others
here have said it wouldn't be enough.

Given that I'm running this coil on a nearly-unreplaceable 120mA NST,
I want to minimize any risks to the power transformer.
