Hartley Plate Choke

[Roderick M. Fitz-Randolph]

I am in the process of building a VT-4-C (211) Hartley Oscillator
transmitter for 80 meters (but want to have the ability to go to
160 meters) and have most of the components assembled, however, I
would like to make the RF choke and want to make it out of small
gauge magnet wire wound on a wood dowel.  Does anyone have any
suggestions as to the size of wire, diameter of the choke (single
layer wound) and the length (or turns)that would be suitable for
40, 80, and 160 meters?

Your suggestions gratefully received.

Rod, N5HV
