Ted: ""
The reason that some people recommend snaking instead of coiling is to avoid the extra inductance caused by coiling. Snaking isn't perfect, but it's better. ""Coiling a wire pair will not add inductance, as both are coupled. Individual wires on the other hand, will.
I tried four different guage pairs, wound them around anything I could find, even speaker magnets/circuits...no change in inductance whatsoever.
If the cable inductance is a concern, then the length would certainly be an issue. But coiling the stuff does not change the lumped inductance.
Cheers, John
