First attempt at rewinding an oscillator coil (Phil 38-12)
#21

No no I was just making the point that the resistance doesn't really mean much when you are working with tuned circuits. Other than whether good (showing a low resistance) or bad (open)
140t might be a little too much but once you get it working what will happen is it won't tune up to the top end of the band. Worst case you'll have to remove some turns from the primary. On my model 600 it should tune up to 1800kc but will only go up to 1500kc. I need to remove a few turns from the primary.

When my pals were reading comic books
I was down in the basement in my dad's
workshop. Perusing his Sam's Photofoacts
Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.
Circa 1966
Now I think I've got!
