Hi,
    I am considering using Aluminum service drop wire (3/0 gauge) as a 
conductor for an LF transmitting loop. I know that the conductivity is not 
as good as copper but it weighs so much less that I can use a larger 
diameter conductor.
Has anyone tried this? How would it hold up when flexed by the wind ? Other 
thoughts?
