Probably everyone but me knew or knows this but it seems it is NOT a good idea to use stainless steel band clamps  as coil taps.  Especially on a large 160M Base coil.     Oh well….   The ss band only got red hot and caused the #10 wire coils underneath it to melt into the pvc form and did not start a fire at least.
