Hello
Aggrivation was a joking word. I unwound both copper wires that make up the coil.
Here comes the fun part. "I HATE COILS!"......unwinding was the easy part. rewinding was for me impossible. Last night one of he coils came partly undone and unwound it's self. I tried to do it again but the fine wire tangled it's self. the more I tried to untangle the mess to worse it got.
I was thinking about the other coil I showed in the pics. If I removed the iron from the inside would the coil work similar to the original?
I know the windings may be a little smaller and the foundation it is wound on is smaller as well but would I at least get a signal.
My chances of finding a replacement and or finding wire thin enough just as bad.
