Hmmm ... okay, this makes sense.  This also suggests that with the
cores I was looking at (on the e-place ... just looking, though) my
thoughts of using something in the 1-10 KCs range would be a good
thing with enough filtering so that what happens in the converter
stays in the converter.

Thanks!
