Gary, I know where you are with the knee,  I have had both replaced, it did 
hurt like hell but will soon feel great.  Work hard on the PE, get that knee 
fex to 105 degrees.
Rick, consider 17 Gage electric fence wire available at your local feed store.  
I think I bought  1/4 mile for something under $20.  Try two strands, hold one 
pair end  in a vice and twist the other end of the pair with an electric drill. 
 It completely changes the feel of the wire.

Rock:  Sitting here 3 weeks after total right knee replacement surgery,  and 
yeah it hurts like hell. I have some experience as I've had both hip joints 
replaced, but the knees are worse.  So building a wire antenna huh? You know 
that not only is enameled wire lighter than vinyl but it has a longer 
electrical length, i.e. it gives a slightly tighter pattern. Well, I don't have 
any but I'm sure someone out there does.73, Gary K5AMH

I am looking for some #14 (64 mil), enameled solid copper -- magnet wire or 
transformer wire some might call it.
I can trade you equivalent (or a mix of)   #18, #20 and many smaller gauges (of 
which I have a fair stock).
Looking for about 50 feet at a minimum and could use 75' to 100' if you have 
it.    I can buy it off of the web, but trading locally is the more $ expedient 
way to go.
Thanks and 73...Rick -- W5RH
