So for the tandem toroid, does it matter which way those are wound? ?Should they be mirror images of each other (clockwise on one, counterclockwise on the other)?

For the air cores, you are correct, either hand will suffice as the start and end are inline, were they to be staggered as with the Toroid cores on the atu then it would matter.

Left handed cores have a negative inductance whilst right handed coils have a positive inductance <v, VBG>

Look at the board and think about it a while...

In which direction are the toroids on the ATU-100 to be wound?

This explains it clearly, and has a picture at the bottom showing 20 wraps:

If you stop and think about it for a while it will become apparent that for every pass through the core, while the winding is incomplete, there will be one pass over the core - except on the last pass when it doesn't pass over the core because the winding is complete. So, for 20 turns through the core , is that 18, 19, 20, 21 or 22 over the core ?

i am talking about the end of the wind where it passes thru the hole from the opposit side of the core and say gets soldered in the pcb,so for example if i have a core with 20 turns do i count 22 on the outside of the core or 18,hope that is clear?,cheers+73.
