Hello, I've got Philco 77 radio with an open field coil. I tried to unwind it to see if the break was close to the top and completely destroyed it. Would it be possible to rewind it from scratch? The spool is just cardboard with heat tape over it and the wire seems to be 32awg. It's a lot of wire probably around 1lb, I don't know how much wire it uses, but do I need to be exact with it? Can I just wind it to about the same size it was before? Any potential damage I can do to the radio? Thanks,
Find
