There is no single right answer to the question.

Saw already a couple of good recommendations, but, if you only want to
support the ends of the dipole, I would go with the cheep Kevlar stuff from
Radio works - about $20 for 200 ft. spool. It may also be OK for supporting
the feedpoint of the dipole, if you are NOT using a pulley.  It is too thin
to use with most pulleys.  It is more than strong enough and I have had it
up for years with no problems.

A little off topic. I have to replace the rope holding up my 204' 
dipole. Anyone have suggestions as to the best type to use?
Thanks,
