Tom,

I think it's time to play "I'll show you mine and you show me yours."  Here are 
data for a large Fair Rite clamp-on -- 2" OD, 1" ID, 2" long.

In each case, the "winding" is the braid of Belden 1800F, a mic cable that is 
roughly 0.21 OD.  Data  were taken at discrete frequencies, and plotted from 
my spreadsheet. This is all small signal data, and there is no d.c. component. 

I have comparable data for large toroids (2.4" OD), solid cylinders, and 
smaller clamp-ons, and they behave similarly.
