I'd like to recommend to others my solution.

While it may not be as inexpensive as winding your own chokes etc, it
is a whole lot easier. I have a double male connector on the back of
the K2/100/AT100 and it feeds the amplifier or antenna. I never move
it. BTW I
My K2 is S/N 5879 with RX ANT, KPA100, EXT ANT TUNER options.
Have had damage from snow static discharge, to the diodes (5711) in the SWR
bridge of the TUNER, the cap C114 on the K2, just inside the RX ANT option
and on a MOSFET inside the home brewed TR switch.
That was in 2007.

While that RF Choke is well and good from the standpoint of static
discharge, I strongly suggest you move it outboard of the KPA100.
With the original KPA100 design, there was a 100 uH choke located at the
antenna jack. That choke was removed along with the improved T/R switch
design. - The
