On March 24th / 2000,  this 40cm secondary has been wound by Andi Saile, Markus Ott and Kurt. The space winding has been accomplished by winding a ~0.9mm cotton thread together with the 1 mm2 Thermex 2.5 (enamelled) wire (diameter 1.33mm, with insulation). In the middle of the job, the white cotton thread finished... :-((  A speedy action revealed there was no more of this white colored thread available, but an almost similar black one. So it was possible to continue and complete the job. After all, Andi and me finished a bottle of "Black & White". Remembering my wife is "black" and I am "white" the coil got its name: BLACK & WHITE. :o)
