[Boatanchors] Antenna coil suggestion

[JAMES HANLON]

Bill,

You would have nothing to lose if you just wound a new coil of a few turns on the outside of the main winding.  It may take a little cut-and-try, but I'm sure you could get working again.  Also you might take a careful look at the remaining coil.  The lead wires tend to melt first because they are not as well heat-sinked as the interior wire, and you might get lucky and find some stubs you could make contact to.

Good luck,

Jim, W8KGI
