Dave ZL3FJ has been running a loop for quite a few years now with 800W PEP
which gives a peak of around 30A.    No reports of any problems that I have
heard.   It is run from a suburban backyard and is about 25 feet high by 50
foot long.    It uses 2 conductors of 7/1.5mm aluminium in parallel and has
an inductance of about 64uH.    Series tuned by about 15nF.
