Starting 37-116 Deluxe Restoration
#49

Oh, I took a break alright. To go help help my cousin and her kids move for the second day in a row.

Anyway, the radio is pretty much good to go. Only thing left is to mount the dial tower back on, and confirm the alignment is good (which I hope it is, this looks like a bear to align). But I'm not going to reassemble the tower if I have to drop the RF chassis to get to the band 2 coil(s). So I'm at the point where I decide to fix the coil, or button it up and call it a day.

Has anyone had experience rewinding the band 2 coils? I'm assuming it's the oscillator based on other posts I've found. I found posts where people say their coil is bad, but no one has really spelled out how the coil is wound. I think the only useful info I found when searching was that it appeared to be 40ga. I have some 38ga from when I rewound my 60 coils. If I went through with it, not sure if that would work or if I should get some 40ga

I was somewhat comfortable doing the 60 as those coils were well documented. So if anyone has tackled one of these and can give me some guidance, I'd appertate it.
