Well, do ya, punk?
Seriously, though, you can do it if you follow the instructions on my website to the letter without deviating from them in any way. 31 or 32 gauge magnet wire for the secondary and 38 gauge for the primary. I do not recommend experimenting with wire gauges here, although other sizes might work...but then again they might not. I have only tried this using the wire gauges specified.
Pay careful attention to direction of your windings as well. This is important!

If you do it right...it will tune in stations across the bands upon the first powerup after making the conversion. You will have to align the set, of course.
