Capacitor dielectric




Hi folks.

	I am building my first coil, but have two major stumbling blocks I need to
get over.

One is the capacitor dielectric. Polyethylene is supposed to be pretty
good, and cheap and easily obtainable. Unfortunately Polyethylene is not
easy to find and not cheap here in Australia.  Polythene, however is easily
found and cheap. (bags, ground sheeting etc) Although there are
structural/manufacturing differences between the two, can they be used
interchangably?
