Thank you for the compliment Lawrence. It was indeed hand wound. That in itself wasn't too hard, I used to do a lot of whipping work when I was younger as I was an avid fisherman and often replaced the rings on my rods. The hardest thing with the coil was pulling the wire tight enough to get a decent grip to the acrylic. I had a very sore groove in my fingers for a couple of days!
Frustratingly, I still haven't been able to test it either. It's for a home brew three valve TRF made with period components. I have everything I need - including a marvellous name plate made for me by Yorkie, but all my woodworking tools are packed away in readiness for moving house so I can't make the breadboard cabinet for it.
Oh well, one day perhaps
