RCA R-73 RESTORATION
#54

I possibly could, I would just need to find a place for it as they usually require holes in the chassis. I also do not know whether or not they counted on this particular configuration (lots of wire, no core) to make the coil behave the way they wanted it to. While the inductance is geometry-material-specific, the part itself is way too far from ideal inductance, andon my LCR meter the reading depends a lot on driving voltage and the frequency. I ordered (cheaply, about $12) a spool of similar wire, about twice the amount, and will try to see what it reads and how it behaves.

Meantime, I found out our Torelco company, (pretty local, it is in NJ and I even, about 32 years ago, had them to do a job for the company I worked for at the time) does one-off rewinding jobs. I sen them the request; let's see what they say. Now that Thordarsen no longer does that.

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
