Re: Weather resistant, covered Litz wire wanted.


 

Very interesting Daniel.? The US transmitter at Cutler, Maine? uses similar Litz wire, but runs three of them in parallel to keep the losses down!
Great pictures.

Hi Donald,
I think this one would have fulfill your need.
composed of 18000 enamelled coper wires but it is rather heavy: 5 kg per meter and more than 8 cm in diameter. My hand gives the scale for one of the connectors.
This beast was used in a variometer in a very high power VLF transmitter.
I have only a length of 20 cm in souvenir.

Hi Rainer. I`m planning a 10 turn square loop, with turns spaced an inch or so to get the self resonant frequency to be as high as possible. Each side will be 2meters or so long, so I`ll need 2 x 4 x 10 meters, or 80 meters total.? I`m not using a screened loop, because the turns would be close to each other, and the self capacitance would be higher, causing the self resonant frequency to be lower. Thanks for your response......................Don Collie
