Which SW coil do you mean - aerial or oscillator?

The SW osc coil is actually dead easy to rewind, it is on a grooved Bakelite former, guaranteeing the wire positioning and separation. Wire diameter is not massively critical either. Although, to be fair, if you do rewind you may wonder why you bothered as the SW performance is not startling.

I agree with Paul about no switch for the PU socket, this is really horrid! Radio breakthrough arises, and there's the distortion aspect also because of the diode connected nearly across the PU input!
