[Elecraft] #26 vs #28 wire

[W3FPR - Don Wilhelm]

Ward,

The number of turns will be the same with any guage wire.  The REAL question
is - will that many turns fit on the toroid core?  In particular, I would
believe you could use #26 wire on SSB T2 with only a bit more care to lay
the turns straight - the FT37 -xx cores should allow up to 33 turns in a
single layer.

73,
