Depleted Uranium SG



Original poster: "Mike" <mike.marcum@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

This is probably the stupidest idea yet, but has anyone thought of using depleted uranium for sparkgap electrodes? Figured if it was one of the heaviest stable elements in the periodic table it won't melt/corrode as easily as tungsten at high power. Does it have crappy RF properties like steel? Probably a moot point in a few years when DRSSTC's take over, but still kinda courious.
