Off again and pulled the dang 1st detector coil. Pictures attached and indeed is open on the large part of the coil primary. Looking at it I can't see where the wires are open and it is a winding, as far as I can tell, underneath the secondary. Well, no way I can attack this thing. Not willing to settle for a shelf queen. Any ideas? I guess I will posting in the want to buy but not certain anyone out there has a 111 with a good detector coil, but, one can only hope Still not certain that this will fix the "Lightning" problems nor understand that other than that the radio seems to work. Oh well, think how well it might work with the coil right. I doubt that anyone offers the service or coil rewinding but when it comes to Philcos, well there certainly is a small market

Any suggestions for what to do will be appreciated.

Wondering if I did it backwards.
If a coil was wound backwards, the oscillator would not work at all.
