Hello, I'm installing some new MILL resistors and Bypass caps... When removing my old glued down resistors my scraper slipped and I hit a SOLEN 1.3mH inductor. A few of the wire winding slipped up a bit, and the very top winding with the end got nicked, so I cut about six inches off. No real damage other than a few windings lost the tight winding. I pushed them back in place and put some hot glue on.
My question, I don't know how touchy these are? If a few of the windings on top, maybe 4 or 5 out of hundreds, are not wound completely tight like new, does it matter?
Thanks,
Tom
