[Amps] Alpha 77dx L5 help

[Greg Wasik]

I have a friend in Thailand who recently zorched out L5 in his 77DX.
Believe it or not, a small lizard got into the tank circuit and when he was
tuning on 80 meters, L5 got extremely hot  - to the point of cracking both
of the torroidal cores! Does anyone know what specific cores were used or
if not, what the approximate value of inductance that L5 should be? I
assume these are iron powder cores.  I'm trying to help him remotely or
perhaps send him a replacement
