Hi Ron,

The 100-250 MC "coil" is made from a flattened piece of tubing.  
Standard 3/16" hobby-shop brass with approx 1/32" wall thickness 
squeezes done to almost the exact dimensions, 0.266 x 0.050.  The 
original is probably silver plated.  The loop extends 1.820 above the 
banana plugs that are the same as on the other coils.  That's 2.45 
overall.  The inside radius of the loop appears to be 11/16", the same 
spacing as the jacks on the GDO.  There are 1/2" un-flattened sections 
where the loop meets the bana plugs.

I guess I could take pix if that's not sufficiently clear.

Hope this helps,
Al
