Rx/Mixer Coil Side.
There are two methods available to recoil the "RF amplifier / Mixer". The first example is recommended by other
amateurs and clubs. I have found this method very cumbersome and time consuming, so I will recommend my
second method.
Rewinding Coils Method #1:
It is not recommended to wind the coils in this first example, but it may suit some people. All previous examples
by other clubs and amateurs have used this method.
Coil # 1:
This is RF antenna input coil.
Move coil slug to center of coil.
Remove by unsoldering antenna input wire and wire going to ground at top of coil former.
Gently remove former from housing.
Pry off bottom 1 cm of wire & remove enamel from that 1cm of wire.
Cut enamelled wire [0.125mm] to 250mm length & remove enamel from that 1cm from one end of wire.
Solder two pieces of wire.
Wind additional 12 turns of wire onto coil former, in same direction as other wire.
When 12 turns completed, hold down wire with glue from hot glue gun.
Cut wire at the 12 turn mark. [just added]
Or; strip all wire & wind on 54.5 turns. Earth bottom of coil. With tap 2.5 turns from earth.
