[Amps] Tank Coil spacing

[Colin Lamb]

Hi Ian:

Boy, you and Tom like to complicate things.  It should be easy to just read a bit, come close to an existing design, blindly substituting parts on hand, and have a "perfect" amplifier.  

But, now with this information, you are requiring us to actually learn about all this and think for ourselves.  

Life was much simpler when I could get on the air by simply hooking up a piece of wire to my ARC-5 and turning the rotary inductor and link for maximum brightness of the pilot light connected across the feedline.  The chirp was just one of those qualities that gave me a distinctive signal.
