Hi everyone, I recently had to move the first part of my Eastern beverage off the fence to 10-12 feet high. The first 500 feet runs tree limb to tree limb. I have used #12 single (solid) insulated house wiring for the antenna as it is inexpensive and heavy duty. It lasts for years out here on the Oregon coast. Raising my antenna, I have a bit of a problem. Between two points there is a pretty long run, 100 feet of close to it. The #12 wiring is heavy. Is there a strong type of wire that is not quite as heavy and smaller I can use that can handle high winds and all? I need it insulated to protect it from the elements. The weight of #12 bothers me a lot. Any suggestions? Thanks.
