Eddy is right : Gauge is not really important. Also Stranded or solid type wire (solid will be a little better, but not so much).
I will make some measurement next week (i have all the necessary equipment for radio raception measurement). My point is the picture from eddy's winded wire : as there is two wire (one is GND and the second is antenna itself), it should winded carefully (i.e no layers, but both wires in parallel). If it's not possible, maybe it is better to have a shorter lenght of wire (performance point of view). But its only my understanding, i should check more deeply (i know more radio itself than antenna reception theory) .
