The coil has been suspect from the start (mostly because they are notorious for having opens). When I first began the restoration, the top coil lead was broken from the terminal. That has been re-soldered, and I was hoping for the best. What I'll do next is unsolder and remove it from the radio for inspection. I've always been intimidated by winding one of these, but if needed, I will proceed. Ive read a bit about them on other threads and other forums. Direction and number of turns and wire gauge seem to be the most important factors.
If I need to do this, I will likely open a new thread with a more appropriate subject title.
Thanks,
