philco 37-620 code 125
#8

Quote:Ah, thanks for replying Chas, but can you translate that for me!   I don't have any equipment for winding coils.  Can you direct me to someone who can?   Thanks.   Mark
I do not know of someone who would wind or repair an RF coil as a hobby for others.

Post SHARP well lighted images of the defective coil. It will have to be removed from the radio.

Use colored pens or paints to mark the connecting wires. If you can find any other data on the chassis, occasionally, the coil will have a red or other bright color reference mark, record that to your notes...

When removing the coil for its photo session use great care not to disturb the wiring as little as possible.

Post the coil images, indicate your chassis variation, a WTB in the Phorum classifieds.

I'm sure that some collectors have coil "junk" boxes but may not know where the coil came from. So, comparison images will help.

A single, even a double layer solenoid wind for the BC band can be replicated by hand with no tooling..  Opps, will need a micrometer to measure the wire.

New supplies:

Wire, bees wax,   >>>>  patience...  <<<<
