RE: [drakelist] antenna info
Ron Wagner [EMAIL PROTECTED] made an utterance to the drakelist gang -- Polyester rope is a good choice (Dacron is a brand name of it). Polyester will almost not decay unless exposed to chemical or flames. Have had mine up for years and it is till going strong. 73, Ron WD8SBB On Wed, 2 Apr 2008, Terrell Hamilton wrote: Terrell Hamilton [EMAIL PROTECTED] made an utterance to the drakelist gang -- Parachute cord has worked extremely well for me - it's multistranded and braided as well.

Re: [drakelist] antenna info
Dennis Monticelli [EMAIL PROTECTED] made an utterance to the drakelist gang -- I agree. The black polyester double braided line with a monofilament core is not only highly UV and decay resistant, it does not stretch. I have nothing but good things to say about it.
