Andy,

I got tripped up on that too. Then, I realized that any time a wire
passes _through_ a toroid center, it counts as one turn. So, in the
picture on the left there are eight turns as you noted. In the picture
on the right there are still eight turns: 1-7 wrap tightly around the
inner surface of the toroid. Turn eight, instead, passes through the
center from the top of the figure to the bottom.

Another way to look at it: Consider the Left hand picture with eight
turns. Now take lead #2 unwind and/or fold it down, so that it is on
the backside of the toroid, as pictured, positioned between lead #4
and lead #3, as in the right hand figure.

Hope that helps.
