Philco 19X Coil Question
#1

https://philcoradio.com/library/download...l.%201.pdf

I’m still very new to radio restoration and am working on a Philco 19X that I believe has problems with the detector and oscillator coils. I’m not sure how to properly test coils but I did a sound continuity test between the 5 pins of the detector coil and got continuity between #2, #4 and #5, nothing between #1 and #3. The ohm readings between those pins are on the enclosed photo. 

I would appreciate it if someone could confirm that what I assume is the secondary, needs to be rewound and if so, what gauge of wire I require. It looks to be about 14 turns but my eyes are older then the radio so it’s hard to tell. ?

I’ll leave the oscillator coil for a later post just in case my assumptions on this coil are wrong.

Also if anyone can lead me to a post or even better, a video as to how to properly test coils, it would be greatly appreciated!

Those are details better left to the ones who know. Maybe you disconnected the wrong end of the wire.RodB — 06:22 PM
