Explorer II Standard Coil measurements.

[Pedro]

Hi everybody,

I'm thinking to make an smaler DD coil for my Explorer II to use in the trashy places
So I just start to measure the standard coil

Here is the data I got:

TX - 590 uH / 0.6 Ohms
RX - 510 uH / 6.6 Ohms

I think that each coil have a diameter of 20 cm, so

TX - 34 turns / 0.8mm Wire
RX - 30 turns / 0.3mm Wire

Well, this is what I think there is inside my explorer DD coil...
I hope this helps any of you and if anyone have more detail in the subject, please email me.

Best Ragards
