Piece of cake now, I thought you were asking about the schematic capture. Turns out that it was an image from a website anyway. 
Piece of cake now,
Yes. A great improvement.
Hi Dale, sorry for the late reply. Thanks so much for your support. I am going to pick up a copy of that book you suggested as well as the book Barry suggested. The chokes I ordered should be in next week sometime so when I get them and test'em I will post on this link.
Thanks again!
Have a great weekend!

Sorry Matt, I did not know before that you did not know what parallel meant for wiring. In a post above I linked a informational site on inductors with diagrams. If you put them in series instead of parallel you get the opposite effect,more resistance and heat.. I used to fix radios and amplifiers and did a lot of substitutions if I lacked parts. Anyway the 13 amp ones should work. A lot of the signal blocking stuff is an engineering problem beyond my pay grade. From what I read the chokes eliminate reflection,a fairly common issue in signal transmission. There are some smart people here who use DCS that can help you get it going . You may want to get Barry's book before doing it if you don't have it already,it may save you grief in the long run. Rewiring a layout is harder than wiring it right the first time. Dont be afraid to ask questions if you are not sure.. People here are pretty good about helping and explaining.
Since you are doing DCS and wiring, I suggest getting a copy of Getting Started in Electronics by Forrest Mimms. It is out of print but you could probably get a copy of it on the Bay,Amazon and elsewhere. It explains electronics and components in easy, simple terms. Just reading the first few chapters you will understand a lot in a short time,enough to understand wiring,common components and the like. I get confused sometime and refer to it to re establish basic principles. Good luck.

Great diagram. I printed this out Thanks Dale!
Thanks Dale!Originally Posted by Dale H:

Here is a diagram of inductors in parallel. What I meant was to keep them spaced apart horizontally to avoid intersecting fields. If all the inductors are equal the load should distribute fairly evenly between the inductors (commonly called chokes). If in series the resistance would increase,not what you want.

anyone interested in seeing the pictures of my recently finished yard with chokes installed you can see them under my other post. Click on link below.
