[AMRadio] DX 100 question

[Jim Wilhite]

Thanks for looking Gary,

Yes that is the plate coil of the driver, one end to the final grids and 
the other tied to two point on the bandswitch.  What has me going is the 
one in this DX 100 is 3/4" in diameter (same as yours) and has two taps 
rather than the one you have.  I didn't, and still don't, know were this 
coil came from.  I though the Apache used the two tap coil for 10 and 15 
+ part of 20, which the DX 100 didn't.

Evidently I was wrong.  If you still have the transmitter where you can 
see, how many turns on the total coil?    I sure appreciate your help.

73
