Ah, finally, someone who knows what the conductivity of silver oxide is.
Although I believe silver sulfide is much more common than oxide, I've
been able to find the conductivity of the sulfide but not the oxides.
Just what are the conductivities of the silver oxides (AgO and Ag2O)?
Which are we most likely to find on the outsides of wires? Are they
really more common than the sulfide?

But then, maybe SILVER (AG) ! Silver is one heck of a conductor, and what,
pray , when it Oxidizes (AG - O) ? Turns out that the conductivity of
Silver Oxide is almost as great as SILVER! (but, as for the effeciency, ,
unless severe resistance (perhaps in a hi "Q" loading coil for a mobile)
Doubt would make much difference that could be detected! Jim NN7K
