Count turns on inside of form.
Tin leads with solder before installing.
Pull each turn tight before winding the next.
Before installing T1 or L4 on the pc board, be sure to tin both coil leads with
solder. The coil wire provided with your kit is coated with heat-stripable enamel
insulation that breaks down at soldering-iron temperatures. If you touch the tip
of an iron to the end of the wire for several seconds, the insulation should start to
melt, allowing solder to adhere to the copper underneath. If your iron isn't hot
enough to start this process, carefully scrape off insulation with a small hobby
knife before attempting to tin.
If necessary, refer back to these instructions at any time during assembly. You
may now move ahead to the section of the manual that corresponds with your
particular kit.
