New Member with Philco 38-12 open oscillator coil
#8

I am appreciating the helpful responses I have been given so far...on the other hand, I am still looking for information on the second part of my query.  Since 3 of the 4 pins except the wire from the primary coil on pin 2 had broken wires at the solder terminals end with no continuity to any other pin, I am uncertain about how to rewind and connect the secondary coil.  Since the wire connected to pin 2 was one end of the largest winding on the coil I can now infer how to wind this larger primary coil.  As I posted, I am trying to learn if the secondary coil wire connected to pin 4 is also wired so that it terminates at the index mark end of the coil as is the case for pin 2 and does the winding connected to pin 3 terminate at the solder lug end or is it connected the other way from pin 2?

Thanks,

Ernie
