Thanks, Bob!
Mondial - Thanks for the info, I'll put it back then.
When you're rewinding coils (I haven't checked mine yet), is the exact wire gauge important? From what I've read it sounds like at least the osc tickler needs to be cooked and rewound. I have a large spool of 30awg, but nothing else. Can I get away with it? I can't find the specs, but I think the original was supposed to be slightly thinner.
Also, does anyone know what type of rubber grommets to buy for under the tuning cap?
EDIT: I've started testing the coils, so far the primary on the detector coil and the tickler on the oscillator coil are out. Great. Is there a list somewhere of the number of turns and gauge of these coils?
