I am interested in systems of *all* power levels and magnifiers are included. I need a wide range. Research Goals : - to verify/modify current thinking on optimum wire size - to investigate relevance of wirelength to secondary design and performance - to compare theoretical analyses of performance with real life coils - to investigate issues associated with scaling systems up in size Please, please respond to me personally with the information requested. I cannot stress enough that the enterprise will be a total failure without a healthy response. I will be happy to mail to those that do any findings I make. I have no interest in duplicating designs. The information will be treated as confidential if requested. Thanks in advance, Malcolm Data delayed due to mail problems. It takes a loooooong time to read it all. Barry
