Re: Clarke and Smith 8812 FM IF transformer
I think I might possibly have repaired it! I took it off again and looked very carefully through a jeweller's loupe and saw an end to the coil. I managed to unwrap enough to connect it to the tag. I have tried to repair the mangled end of the former using the insulation from a crimp forked connector and araldited it to the remains of the former and to the stub on the "chassis" of the transformer.
I now get an ohm or two between the tags. I have put some metal lacquer over the unwrapped bit of coil to insulate it and hold it to the new support. I am now letting everything dry and set. It will be a miracle if it works but there is some hope.
Can I align the transformer before refitting it using the signal gen set to 10.7 mHz and the oscilloscope to avoid putting any unnecessary strain on my repairs?
