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?
