Denco FM coil set
I have a set of Denco Maxi Q 510 coils. These are:
Aerial Oscillator IFT1 IFT2 Ratio detector I have had them a number of years and whilst trying to tidy the shed came across them again and thought I might like to build a valve FM radio. Does anyone have a copy the coil data that can be scanned in? If so I would be grateful. Thanks Dave |

Re: Denco FM coil set
Thanks Kipperdog,
I have looked at the above site but they only cover coils upto HF, I can't find any mention of the VHF coils, I removed the coils from a chassis that I purchased at a radio fair a few years ago, the chassis appeared to be homemade and was well built but at sometime had components removed from it. I did wonder if it was a kit as the dial scale looked professional. Dave |

Re: Denco FM coil set
Hi Dave, there was an Osmor FM tuner kit, this was reviewed in Radio Constructor. I hadn't heard of the Denco one and I have some extensive Denco literature; I also think they would have been making coil sets for the radio manufacturers. Do you have any pictures of the coils?

Re: Denco FM coil set
Hi Ed, Attached is a picture of the coils. I have a copy of the Jason kit booklet by G. Blundell, I think, and also a tuner built to these plans, but the Denco coils I have are different. I think it would be fairly to easy to get them working in a tuner but it would be nice to have some info on them.

Re: Denco FM coil set
Hi,
I have somewhere a Norman Price book “An F.M. Tuner” written by a member of GEC, and could have Denco offered a set of coils for this tuner? Terry. |
