Rewinding ferrite core antenna.

Hi guys.

Working on a Grundig-Majestic radio, model 8085 I think.

Anyway, the rubber bands holding the ferrite antenna gave out and I'm left with a ferrite core and wire.

Does anyone have *any* tips they can offer on winding these? I've wound coils in the past, which probably won't be as time consuming as trying to get this perfect. The original wire lost a lot of its insulation, so I'm replacing it with magnet wire.

Will being off a little on the winding numbers have that drastic of an impact?
