LF, I have just spent three hours trying to find any practical information on the Web on how to wind a honeycomb coil at home. I can see pictures of the finshed coils but without some step by step p
J - Bill Bowers has spent a lot of time evaluating coil construction techniques. I don't know if any of his articles from The Lowdown are available on-line. If not, they should be! From memory, here
Dear J, LF Group, I would certainly go for the simple solenoid initially - it is much easier to make, and also to alter the inductance via tapping points, which is usually necessary when setting the
J, if you follow Jim's suggestion to wind a solenoidal coil, I would suggest using G4FGQ's program "solnoid3" to estimate inductance and Q. The program is available here: http://www.btinternet.com/~g
