Brass is an excellent electrical conductor and the 1/8-inch diameter Brass Brazing rod will work much better than your Lowe’s 12 gauge copper wire or Coat Hangers.

Also for your 30 inch by 16-inch Aluminum Foil covered “Reflector Board” suggest visiting a Metal Shop that manufactures copper Gutters and Downspouts and ask for a 30-inch by 16 inch copper sheet that they use in manufacturing their Gutters and Downspouts. The copper sheet will reflect electrical signal many times better that Aluminum Foil wrapped around a piece of plywood and/or cardboard.
