I have a dipole with 134 feet of 20 gauge insulated copper wire. What
would happen if I wanted to replace one leg (67 feet) with 18 gauge
copper clad insulated steel wire but chose to keep the other leg with
the 20 gauge wire?


Hair will grow in the palm of your hand.


I'm 70. Hair grows everywhere on me. My barber charges $5 just for an
estimate.
