Thanks for the good advice Terry. The tuner section is out of the chassis, so I can't take any measurements right now. If the coil proves to be bad, I have a scrap 37-610 chassis with the coils intact, but it's a code 124 and the tuner section is a different design altogether. Its AM oscillator coil has no tap and has a different part number in the documentation. Would it be a safe bet to try it and would the trimmer compensate for any differences? And regarding my original question; what could cause the coil to measure 8 ohms, when it's spec'd at .8 ohms? Aren't they usually open if bad?

Just to make sure, you chose either 4 ohm into 5K or into 10K? (blk-org or blk-grn)morzh — 06:23 PM
