[Elecraft] k1 toroid question

[Don Wilhelm]

Frank,

Regardless of the diagrams, the turns specified in the text is correct.
Count the number of times the wire passes through the center of the core 
- and yes, that last turn does pass through the center, so count it.

In other words, a straight wire through a toroid is 1 turn, a full wrap 
around the core is 2 turns.
That applies to any toroid.
