Hi Bart,

>Your number of turns hasn't physically changed and is 224 correct?

The 224 is the number of wires one would count from the center of the coil
along the radius.  But each wire only makes 74.6 turns.  3 wires times 74.6
turns yields the number of wire counts along the radius.

Could it be that three wires tightly coupled and wound in parallel act as
one single continuous wire?
