Hi everyone
Curious - if I run my choke wires over my turret board instead of under, will that cause noise?
Thanks.

No
Ok, here's the thing. Randomly running choke wires over an unpopulated section of board won't in itself cause noise, that's where my answer came from.
Without any other info (that you haven't given), that's all there is.

Use a big marker and write on your wall, NEVER mix High current wires with low current wires.
Or something like;
I need to read about inductive coupling between wires

Hey Shooter.
OK. Dumb ass question. Which are the high voltage ones and which are the low voltage ones?
And the choke question was just an "in general"... if there is such a thing as that, in this world.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inductive_coupling
really is worth the read.
general questions beget general answers which generally don't help much
And is more about current than voltage

I don't think he said high "voltage" wires.. pay attention

I think of this as ‘avoid bringing the powerful transmitters too close to any sensitive receivers’.
Maintaining a reasonable degree of separation between them will avoid problems (and kludgy solutions) down the road

As PDF64 eluded to;
If it's in the preamp keep it away from the power supply and PA section.
I didn't look up the math and I'm hot and sore, but I think it's a distance squared thing
