There is a link to a report in there.
I will, but I have also seen several claims that at least for listenign
purposes, stainless isn't so bad, and that except when driving an antenna
with power, it may not matter what metal is used. No worries though, it's
cheap, I've got it, and I'll try it.
If it fails, I'll get some hard-drawn
copper.
Claims are like belly buttons; everyone has one.
These guys did an actual study.
If nothing else, the stainless could be used as a support for the copper.
