[Milsurplus] Antenna Wire

Tue, 18 Jun 2002 21:39:43 -0500

what I can offer you is this amount of wire .. it was formally used as
utility company overhead distribution wire.. it is copper/bronze..  about a
#4 awg.. I have this in solid or stranded..  there is no type of insulation
n this wire..  I have used it in runs as long as 560' at my summer home in a
long wire configuration with virtually no stretching at all .. the test for
me was how many turkey buzzards it would support at 4-6 pounds guess each I
have counted up to 12 buzzards at one time with no dedgritation in wire sag
.. let me know.  thanx for the efforts you all are making   mac/mc  w5mc
