Does any one use E9 tuning on their 8 string lap steel? if so what are the string sizes?

Hi
it would be helpful if you spelled out the notes in your particular E9 tuning , as there must be numerous variants , and gave the scale length of your guitar.
Or you could just buy a pedal steel E9 set of strings and discard the strings you don't need.
