Close... 46 MHz. But then I did two ugly impedance changes.... it WAS
a quick-and-dirty test. I wonder how much I can push it if I make nice
impedance changes. A pair of pulse-transformers might come in
handy. Hmm....

The real reason for the test? All that nonsense talk on skin-effect on
speaker cables.

Skin-effect is there, but at a totally irrelevant level IMHO.
