Hi all, I'm arrived at page 53 of the manual, and I'm making my first toroid. I followed the instructions, and then out of curiosity I tried to measure the inductance, using my old HP 4260A. I know that I'm not supposed to match the indicated inductance, and that I should stick to the published turns count; in fact I was just willing to give a try to the HP 4260A, the least used instrument in my lab.
Well, it ended up indicating a value of 160 uH, not 18 uH as supposed. So I tried to measure the value on another bridge I had there by chance, and ended up with a very similar value. So I tried the HP 4260A on the solenoidal RFC (the green bodied) and I found values very similar to what I expected. I know that i'm doing something wrong, but I cannot understand what's my mistake....
