Is this a coil only, or does it have a paralleled resistor? In TV jargon,
a "peaking" coil is used in the video circuits to achieve the desired
bandwidth and almost always has a built-in resistor in parallel. If yours
is just a simple adjustable coil with no resistor, should be ok.

Why the parallel resistor? Is it to lower Q and increase the
bandwidth?
