** The current handling ability of modern, high-temp silicone-varnish
insulated Cu wire is surprising. For example, in single-layer solenoid
RF choke service, #24 gauge will handle 4A of anode-I. The reason is
that the wire is cooled by direct contact with air. {note -- this wire
is sold by weight on your spool at electric-motor rewinding shops.}
