You're asking for something that does not exist. Someone would have to spend a LONG time...years...with no job or anything else to do but remove coils from Philco radios, unwind, measure wire diameters (with a micrometer) and count number of turns, rewind. And Philco made a lot of different radios.
Quote:The coils aren't by any chance all the same gauge, are they?
Nope. The inner winding on the outer form is, I think, 30 or 31 gauge. I do not remember offhand what gauge the tertiary winding (on the inner core) is.
