Although the telegraph-splice is the proper way to join two wires together,
it will create an RF impedance-bump that may affect transmission.

Each wire over-hand several times followed by close-wrapped coil at the end
of each is the telegraph-splice. It is as strong as the wire itself.

Question; what is the proper way to splice on to a long wire to add length,
I am using 14 ga solid, copper over steel, OUR WINDS GET OVER 100 MPH



Thanks to the group
