I never had a problem with THHN, but stranded copper weld had a very short life in Aruba.

I bought on eBay several years ago stranded silver-solder tinned copper wire with a Teflon coating. It doesn't seem to have stretched much and the Teflon coating is holding up very well. I used #14 on 160M and #12 on 80M. Here in NY I use #20 for receive antennas. So, I guess it depends on your climate what works best and what is the best value. GL.
