SUMMARY
The natural resonant frequency of an LC oscillator circuit is calculated using the same formula regardless of whether an air core or ferrite core inductor is used. The key formula is \( f = \frac{1}{2\pi\sqrt{LC}} \), where \( L \) is the inductance and \( C \) is the capacitance. The discussion emphasizes that inductance remains constant across different core materials, and it suggests that the original poster may need guidance on how to wind an air core inductor to achieve a specific inductance value.
