That's a conversation piece! Almost like a ferrite core memory :-)

Not a typo. It is clearly marked on the Raytheon schematic. I
have'nt opened
the tank to see it yet, but I will to sample the oil and remove the
filament
transformer. And hopefully have room for my puck diodes. I have no
way to
measure it other than maybe taking a known capacitor and resonating
it and
and extracting the inductance from the res freq.

Not at all an unreasonable inductance for a charging choke for a
radar pulse forming network. All depends on the operating voltage
and capacitance of the PFN. I have a 600 henry charging choke from
an old Hughes radar which ran about 500 watts input (250 kW output at
0.001 duty). It's about a 4" cube and weighs around 10 pounds or a
bit
less.
The charging voltage was probably around 7000 but I can't remember.
I didn't realize this was a low current choke.
I was thinking in terms of primary reactors. My bad!
