Homemade coils for using an MFJ analyzer as a dip meter?

I have an MFJ modle 249 (the original with a meter) antenna analyzer.
MFJ sells a kit of two coils to make it into a dip meter.
I would like to use it to measure the resonant fequency of a traps I
am building, but am unable to purchase the coils.
Is there a way to make then on your own?
TIA,
Geoff.

Don't bother. I have one and it's a very poor dip meter. Get a Heathkit
or Eico or Millen instead. You'll be much happier.
