Mainly what you should consider is that the wire guage can withstandt the
current without overheating. Chokes are so-so just because they can form
resonancies with the tank caps and amplify some radio waves. I would
recomend you build a Terry Filter instead. With both methods, you should
always use a safety gap. I'm no expert on the matter, but I hope this
helps,
