Somewhere I read a response from Hans that one can use 0.33mm (AWG #28) for everything
Yes, you did:-)
Everything.

See /g/QRPLabs/message/128803 . I plan to do the same when I get to that step of building my QMX+ to avoid one of the challenges I had building my QDX-M.?

I will be twisting the sisters in the next day or so.

Wound everything except the trifiliar with .33 wire. I must say that by the time I got to the last pbf torroid, I had the winding process down to an artform. Using a very small crochet hook really worked well for me.

Yes, the only exeption I remember are the single turn coils in the T507. Eveything else seams to be in .33mm wire.

Good luck,

I’m taking Hans at his word that “… we'll switch to 0.33mm for everything.“ Even though the photo in the assembly manual shows the thicker wire used for the single turn in T507, I used the same 0.33 mm and assembly was easier.?

I am at the point of switching tips and temperature to work on the back panel connectors, so I have a while to go before I can apply power and see how well my build works. It sure looks neater than my last one!

Mine was recently completed and tested. Used .33 wire exclusively and everything works great.
