You might want to post this in the articles submission section for the tech library. What do you think @Jim Oaks?

Excellent chart! I've been trying to research that myself lately. It is very a frustrating process to track that stuff down. Thank you for your work.

Coil turns and wire diameter are the missing critical points. Great list though..


There is a RC 6in xj that's 140 ish ppi and 24.5 free. Have to count the turns and measure wd.
