I have several questions about tank circuits and inductors.

1. How can i consistantly make an inductor other than buying one?
2. nvm aswered my own question
3. How do i make a reciever for the signal emited by a tank circuit? (do i use the same type of circuit but with an antenne?)
4. How would i amplify the signal and make it DC?
5. Does the capictor need to be nonaxail?
6. How can i determine the range of the signal?

Thanks

3. Yes
4. You have to use an amplifier then a detector (can be just a diode)
5. The capacitor can be any sort it depends on the frequency you hope to operate at.
6. Try it. It depends on your frequency, your power output, your receivers sensitivity, the sort of modulation you use and the quality and gain of your aerials and of course the terrain if its VHF or greater in frequency. Radio amateurs can communicate across the Atlantic with 200 mW and Morse code, but this sort of range/power is exceptional.
