I was lucky enough to get ahold of 10 to 12 gauge (I haven't 
measured it yet) enameled Cu wire that I plan to wrap a secondary coil 
with.  I realize that a larger wire size lowers resistance and ups the
'Q' 
factor- so I'm hoping to increase the ultimate output (isn't everyone?).

It seems like most coils use between #28 and #16.  My question is, then, 
does anyone have experience with such a heavy gauge?


Thanks in advance, Brandon M Doughan
