Forget ohms. Go for the turns. Also if you don't have the proper wire (often gauge 42) I recommend you buy a spool, with 30-s radios comes handy more often than I'd like to see it.
If the coil is not a part of the resonant tank the turns is the only thing that matter.
If it were, than everything would matter, turns, length of winding, thickness etc.
People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
