Re: AWG 10 magnet wire sources?

Oddly, MWS is probably a mile from where I live... And, of course, they have
every magnet wire known to mankind, but for AWG10 they have a 10 pound
minimum.. about $100, sales tax and shipping included.  I was looking for a
few feet (for a matching network) and cast my bread upon the waters.

The next challenge will probably be the high current RF capacitors (we've
already got the water cooled cold plate, etc.)


This brings up an interesting topic that I will post separately...
