Hi David,

I'm thinking that comparing 50ft of banded pri to 50ft of Cu tubing, in of 
itself, might not be the best comparison, since with Cu tubing the pitch 
needs to be say a 1/2 in (c-c) where with a band, the pitch can be closer. 
Maybe the best comparison is using 50 ft of each conductor with the same 
1/2 inch pitch so the band takes the same spiral path as the tubing.
