LF: RE: Antenna wire

["Gary - G4WGT" <g4wgt@tiscali.co.uk>]

Peter, LF,

I got mine as scrap from a telephone engineer many years ago.

I have used it as twin balanced feeder with a HF trap dipole & an inverted V
& worked very well. The drop wire I had only had one wire copper coated
(don't know why). It is strong & light & was told that it is about 72 ohms
as a balanced feeder.

BT telephone drop wire seems to be very good material for antenna wire.
Does anyone know where you can buy it?
