Hummm, I would use a slightly wider spacing with the
loading coil wires ...


The coils used were used only as a visual aid. That part is left up to
the individual experimenter ... no attempt was made to do the actual
experiments for the reader ...

However, if you read Mr. Vincents data, this coil is "closely wound."
And, I documented the construction of the jig itself, not the individual
components to be used. The importance here is how quickly components
can be swapped in and out ...

Low Q might be very desirable to someone valuing bandwidth over other
aspects ... not only out of the box thinking is necessary,
out-of-the-box-experimenting is accepted here ...
