[HBR] 160 Meter Coils

[TC Dailey]

Xtal is 1710, and the main-tuning cap is a Miller 1461-BS, alright.

---yeah, conspicuous, is the fact that in MY material, there is never
anyting mentioned about the 160m band... then again, I recall that around
those times, hams were "moving up" into the higher bands, and 160m took a
real tumble in popularity.  My old boss at Burstein-Applebee in KC (WØOSD
SK) used to go on-and-on about how great the cycle in 1959 was, and I recall
that 1964 (I was a US Navy Radioman 2nd. Class at the time) was a pretty
darned good year for HF props, so the 160m band, most likely might just have
been back-burner... thus the lack of interest.

Of course, then there's the obvious - Close to the 1st. IF; Lots of wire to
get in a small space; hard to run all that wire out off your doorknob, and
still keep it straight... all that stuff.
