Hello all, I have an open secondary winding on my oscillator coil, item #16 in the parts list with a secondary resistance value of 3.4 ohms. I counted 16 turns of original transformer or magnet wire, which is about the size of a human hair. The smallest transformer wire I have is 33 AWG. When I restring the secondary coil with 16 turns as original, I am measuring 1.2 ohms. So, what is more important here, the resistance value (which I think they used as a measuring reference) or the inductive reactance which is how this coil is actually used? I know the number of turns affects the inductance, but I get the wrong value when checked with a vom. Thoughts?? Thanks!!
