The
coils of the T filter wound on ferrite toroids get very
   
hot very quickly.  It's the ferrite producing the heat not
   
the wire.  I must have the wrong flavour of ferrite so I
   
ordered some different ones (nice blue EPCOS ones) but they
   
wont arrive till Monday.  Meanwhile I'll wind some air cored
   
coils for the filter. 
The ferrite seems to saturate. 
I recommend using iron power cores of -2 type (everywhere available,
cheap, well working world wide). For your power level, T106-2 or maybe T130-2
types are suitable. A T200-2 can be used for 1 kW when wound to j50 Ohm
at LF.
