[ARC5] Coil Color Codes

Do any of y'all have a color code info for the Command Set receiver and transmitter coils?

I have a BFO coil with a brown or black dot on it, with no other markings. 
Another BFO coil I have had "1415 KC" on it and a yellow dot.  A new and 
unused 239 KHZ BFO coil I bought from Fair Radio has "239 KC" and a red dot.

The new unused P/N 6032 MO 7-9.1 MHZ coil I bought from Fair Radio has the part number 
on it and a yellow dot on the outer coil with a yellow and orange dot on the 
inner coil.  Putting color codes on the inner and outer MO coil makes 
perfect sense, because you can't see the part number of the inner coil when 
it is installed.  And has anyone checked to see if the inner and outer MO coils are swapped around from unit to unit to produce different frequency ranges?

I believe the RF and IF coils are color coded as well.  Some RF coils I have that came from a BC band ARA set have a Red, a Yellow, and a Black dot, one each. 

Thanks,

Wayne
