    B How Many Layers of Aluminum Foil Are Needed for a Resonant Cavity?

    Hi Marcus, Thank you for your awesome answer. I've found this online calculator http://www.rfcafe.com/references/calculators/skin-depth-calculator.htm According to this, using Copper, for 100 mhz I'll only need a skin depth of: 6.54 μmeters or 257.59 μinches. A thickness of 0.006543 mm...

    B How Many Layers of Aluminum Foil Are Needed for a Resonant Cavity?

    Hi, Dave, Thank you for your answer. I'll start building just one then I'll see. Yes I do realize, that's one of the reasons I want to use a flexible material so I can fold it when I'm not using it. I'm planning to use wood as support, like a canvas frame. What about my questions? - I think...

    B How Many Layers of Aluminum Foil Are Needed for a Resonant Cavity?

    I want to build a Resonant Cavity to play with frequencies around 100-700 mhz. I'd like to try different shapes, so I was thinking in using a cheap malleable material like aluminum foil. Questions: - I think one layer of aluminum foil might be too thin.. If I paste a couple of layers will do...
