Re: More Chinese AM radio kits
Jolly 7: That photograph is just what is needed.
If any of us gets one of these KX168 kits, or indeed any other they can at least be sure of the oscillator coil & remember I was dubious about the black coil being the oscillator.
So... If the supplied coils in the KX168 all have the capacitor, then there's no way that the kit could work.
Also, that tuning coil could be incorrect.
On the KX168 the ferrite rod coil has a large and a small winding.
The coil has only three wires.
Look at the diagram for the HX-6B and for the KX168. I know the HX-6B does work.
It looks as though there is something very wrong with the front end of the KX168 and that could be why is does not oscillate.
