## I have given up on torroids  for tank coils on the low bands. I have 
found some small diam, edge
wound ribbon coil stock that works the best for low band work.  3/8" edge 
wound ribbon [.072" thick]
is the same as .28"  tubing for current handling.   1/4" ribbon [ also .072" 
thick]  is ample in most cases
and is the same as .2" OD tubing.   A friend also gave me a bunch of air 
dux.. that uses 8 ga wire.. and the
wire was copper..and not the usual tinned material.  These are things of 
beauty. I didn't know you could
get coil stock in 8 ga wire.

The NCL-2000 used one length #8 AirDux for 80-10
