Hi..
In the past, I've always mounted my coils vertically but
this time around, I need to mount some horizontally. I was
simply going to glue them to the pcb but wanted first to get
input as to other home brewer's method of mounting toroids to
a pcb. The toroids will be FT-37-43 type wide band transformers
in the 10MHz range. Your input is welcome. Take care.

Yeah. A touch of silicon adhesive or hot melt seems obvious. Can't think
what more is needed unless you find something that seems to not be
working as expected.
