Please understand, this radio can be a pain, even if you have built a superheterodyne before, I would suggest doing the AM superhet first; if you would like to go ahead anyway please read the mandatory (Construction tips).

All hand wound coils were wound around a 15/64" drill bit with 22 gauge magnet wire; the ends are scraped off and tinned with solder.


If you want to see how well it works here

Here is an AM and FM one soldered and combined (Make sure you don't ground the AM side of the gang capacitor if your going to do this; put it to positive instead of negative, along with the loop).
