I got some confirmation from my collaborator, The 1/2 turn as were
describing it
was the LAST 1/2 turn wound on the bobbin.

It doesn't happen to be nicked, forming a shorted turn perhaps?

verified more than once.



There isn't a cold solder joint at the heating end of the coil? This
would result in localized heating to one end of the coil ... strange is
all I can say.
