You don't have to rewind the coil just cut the primary wire at the terminal, solder on a new length to complete the extra turns. And start winding! [Image: http://philcoradio.com/phorum/images/smi...n_razz.gif] I'd cut it loose from the top.

I would think that if you can get #12 to set the dial to a station at the low end and the the stations up by 1200 or so are close to frequency the resonant portion of the tuned circuit is working us it should. How is the pol band??
