Garry: FB. I was curious if the 40/42 or 40/44 grade could handle the 
voltage with a 1W lowfer....

175/40 gets pricey in hundreds of feet....   I have this 55mh litz wire 
inductor out of an ultrasonic welding machine (or so I was told)....

Not sure what I would use it for....thought about a base-loaded VLF e-probe 
but I think I would have to dig that old 4-65A out of the back room as the 
active device  to handle the QRN pulse discharge ~:)
