[Elecraft] K2 L33

[Scott McDowell]

Hi

I have a question about L33 in the BFO circuit on the K2 I am building. The
wire it is wound with appears to
have a coating of some kind on it. Should this coating be removed before
soldering it to the resistor that
holds it in place? And if so, how can it be removed without destroying it. I
tried scraping the coating off
but that didn't work. The wire broke. Instead of taking off a couple ot
turns and using it anyway, I ordered
a new one. I sent an email to support at Elecraft about this, but they don't
answer emails anymore.
Thanks
