I have two Johnson 229-203 rotary inductors that I want to use in a 160 tuning network. One has somewhat oxidized wire. Wire size is about #12, composition unknown. Anyone know of a real good way to

Try to determine if they're silver plated. If they are, don't sweat the oxidation: http://www.qsl.net/n9zia/why_silver_plate.html Dan _______________________________________________ Topband mailing l

I would soak it in Tarnex. That will clean it up. 73...........de Goose, W8AV ** See what's free at http://www.aol.com. _______________________________________________ Topband mailing list Topband@co

Bruce, I had heard that the oxide was conductive and that didn't seem right as I always heard popping and cracking as I rolled my tuner to rough out the right setting. Then I saw a post that it was a

Okay, so now the wire is clean and shiny. What about the ceramic form on which the coil is wound? Isn't there now going to be a residue of silver oxide or other possibly conductive crud left between

Let's take this all into the perspective of the real world .Many things interact to determine coil Q, but among all of them the plating or tarnish on the wire surface seems to be one of the least imp

Not true at all in an inductor!!! Anything that increases capacitance between turns, even a virtually lossless dielectric, decreases Q. This is because capacitance shunting a coil or part of a coil
