[IRCA] Would this wire be good for antenna projects?

2013-01-24 Thread Dave Hascall
Before looking at this ebay auction, I completely understand that it might
be like buying a pig in a poke, since we don't know what Gauge it is but,
would this wire be a suitable candidate for BOGs, Flags, air core loops and
such?

Dave,

Other than tuned loops it should work fine and even with a resonant loop 
it will work but with reduced Q over Litz wire.
