LC circuit question for crystal receiver.


My attempt for a 

20 Meters example.  


Solve for L

F = 14MHz

C = 10pF


L = 1 / (4π² (14e6)² (10e-12) )


4π² = 39.4784176044

14e6 = 14,000,000.0 squared is = 1.96e+14

10e-12=0.00000000001

1.96e+14 x 10e-12 = 1960

L= 1 / (39.4784176044 x 1960.00)

        39.4784176044 x 1960.00 = 77377.6985046

L = 1 / 77377.6985046

L = 0.00001292362 or 12.92 µH


Do the numbers add up?

I know I need to revisit Scientific notation.

Thank You
