May 23, 2017 at 20:42 comment added user17592 @Chu would you perhaps like to write an answer for that comment? Then I can accept it. The other answers may be correct (I cannot check), but weren't really tailored for my needs.

May 23, 2017 at 15:17 comment added Chu Slight typo in first comment... I don't think a radio amateur exam will be looking for complex arithmetic. The reactance of C1 is \$\small 93\Omega\$ so the total impedance must be less than this (L/C2/R are in parallel with C1, so this lowers the overall impedance). Hence 1K and 10k are too high. L has a reactance of \$\small 58\Omega\$, and this will add to the series impedance of R/C2. Hence \$\small 93\Omega\$ in parallel with something greater the \$\small 58\Omega\$ will give about \$\small 50\Omega\$. 73!
May 23, 2017 at 15:16 comment added user17592 @Chu that makes sense, and indeed, the current answers seem more complicated than what I saw in the material so far. But, the answer model says it should be 1kΩ... I guess the correction model is wrong. Thanks & 73!

L has a reactance of \$\small 80\Omega\$, and this will add to the series impedance of R/C2. Hence \$\small 93\Omega\$ in parallel with something greater the \$\small 80\Omega\$ will give about \$\small 50\Omega\$. 73!

May 23, 2017 at 14:29 comment added user17592 @glen_geek OK, but how? Could you give me an example?
May 23, 2017 at 14:23 comment added glen_geek Try using complex math rather than using simple magnitudes.
