Hi Jay,

I think the guard ring above the upper winding of the coil lost its contact to this winding. So it was floating. Or, the contact was loose so there was a small arc that started to burn that ring down so the structure became more and more inhomogenious, from a E-field view. Well, at least it worked very well since 2011!

I want to get even better results after the maintenance. There is some room for improvements: The diameter / length ratio has never been optimal on that coil. I want to check if it's possible to build a double layer coil, at least a few of the upper windings... Effort but interesting :-)

Any idea what started the meltdown?

Heard someone say once: There are two types of LF ops ... those that have experienced fires ... and those that will ;~) .

Hi LF,

Unfortunately my LF coil got damaged during transmitting a few weeks ago. I'm soon repairing the coil and hope to join the 2200m band then again.
