It seems possible also to interconnect the shields in groups of "n"
turns and then interconnect them with jumpers, making a spiral coil
with a 1:n turns ratio and tight coupling.
Problems of these ideas are that the insulation is limited by the
insulation of the cable, and the huge capacitance between the coils,
typically more than 100 pF per meter of cable. In other hand, this
may be a practical method to make the capacitance in parallel with
the secondary coil required for a true 6th-order magnifier.
