Speaker wire antenna

I saw that someone had that guitar strings would be good for better range. I have learned that speaker wire works even better simply take off the old wire that comes w/ it and solder the speaker wire on

how much range does it give u

while in a three story house you can control the car on the first floor from the third floor

does it matter which wire i use because there are too wires. also if speaker wire is good on the car is it better to swist speaker wire around the intenna in stead of some other kind of wire and exactly how far is the range?

i used the silver wire and alot of it (note i did not post the first post but i did do it) chris u better watch your back

???????????? COME ON! u didnt answer my whole question... and so does that mean the silver wire is better than the other?

[inventerboy08]

the silver and copper speaker wires aren't any different accept the color, that is just there so that when you are hooking up your speakers, you don't get + and - mixed up in the transition from receiver to speaker.

I stripped 8" of coax and soldered it in place on my stock wite and I havent fully seen how far it gos but I drove it in my house down a 15' hallway and into the room at the end all the way to the wall and it worked fine, where as befor I could barely get it halfway down the hall.

The silver and copper wires are different when i stripped mine the copper wire has 4 little wires and the silver has 3. does this mean the copper is better?
