Haven't gotten to the coil yet. Still have to align the set. Am
going to get the "Ron Special" ball-point pen alignment tool
made this morning. The coil should be right on--counted turns
& made very sure to wind in the correct direction. Will see
what alignment will do for the old girl first.
Any idea other than humidity---what causes the Litz wire
to corrode on the coil windings? The set was obviously not
out in a barn--chassis is in very good shape for the age of
the unit. Thanks much for your help. Jim
