Not wanting to simple throw them away, I decided they could be pressed in service as spools for our Litz wire sales. This means the wire contain 175 strands of #46 wire. Use it to build high Q antennas, coils, traps or for your crystal sets. Loop antenna performance is improved when using the Litz wire do to the higher "Q" factor This is brand new wire from New England Wire and Cable, with a manufacture date of July of 2006 The # 46 wire size, is ideal the gauge for AM broadcast band providing for the highest "Q" coils and and loop antennas. The combined diameter of the 175 strands of #46 wire is .029" or roughly the size of a single #22 wire. Each strand of #46 wire is woven in a quite specific pattern to minimize losses in the bundle. This is a single served wire meaning it has a single wrap of nylon. The wire cuts easy and solders with a simple 25 to 35 watt soldering iron. No special solding tools needed. It is not even necessary to pull off the nylon. Just solder right on top of it and the nylon melts back and seals the end. Please tell your friends where to get their Litz Wire. Thank you and good luck building. By the way, we have a new store! It's just started, but willing be growing every day!!! Click here to see my new store !!
