I was thinking of reducing the solenoid loss by paralleling two or
more #17 wires and close-winding them. If I parallel wind three #17
wires will it be worth the effort in reducing coil loss or does a
simple coil with only one #17 conductor make any sense here?  I will
be running 200 W for now.

I made a coil some time ago with two parallel wires and it did not perform well at all. I do not know why.

In any case, there is no point in spending too much time on the coil when the 'earth' (actually environmental) losses will be far greater. You would be better spending the effort on improving the antenna and insulation.
