F 1540 valve car radio
#2

Hi and welcome,
Can't tell you the number of turns but if your oscillator is too low in frequency at the low end of the dial remove a few turns from the larger coil. If it's too high at the low end add few turn to the larger coil. Preferably at the top of the coil so you don't have to disturb the smaller coil. There are universal replacement coils that should work.

When my pals were reading comic books
I was down in the basement in my dad's
workshop. Perusing his Sam's Photofoacts
Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.
Circa 1966
Now I think I've got!
