Coils:

The Coils really depend on your coil form. A coil form of 1 inches requires:
L1 of about 35 turns
L2 of 9 turns

L2 should be 1/4 inch above L1.

Use 28 gauge magnet wire for coils.

ALL COILS MUST BE WOUND IN THE SAME DIRECTION!!!!!!!!!!!!

This receiver can be used on the Short wave bands using a simple crystal down converter.
I will put a simple down converter on my website later on.
