Very fine solder repair/surgery to coil if possible? - UK Vintage Radio Repair and Restoration Discussion Forum

Hi All.

Just to ask if somebody could possibly repair a coil for me? During trying to diagnose an intermittent fault then align the set it has come apart. The wires are still visible and have to admit, I neither have the skill, tools and eyesight/optics to repair this or even try to begin, it is from a small battery AM receiver from East Germany so a direct replacement could prove difficult to find. I have attached a couple of pics but my phone struggled to get that close up. Any offers for help would be greatly appreciated, thanks for your time.

Kind Regards, Neil.

Hi All,
Hopefully sorted now due to sorting out a new osc coil massive thanks to a fellow forum member for helping me out and sharing some knowledge. Looking forward to getting some music out of this radio again! Forum mods please close.
Kind Regards,
Neil.
