They’re hand wound inductors. I chose .507 as it was just the easiest to wind. I knew it had something to do with the tank but really just wanted help in case it’s the biasing or something dumb like that
With spice you still get the oscillation with the given values but they’re at the desired frequency (1MHz) I can try this solution to see if it works but it would take some time to wind that inductor and ultimately it wouldn’t be what I want it at.
Can you explain why R3 would be better at 1.5K rather than 15K?
