Re: [TowerTalk] Home Depot 14 gauge wire

[Dave NØRQ (lists) <n0rq-lists@sbcglobal.net>]

Not to beat a dead horse, but...
when you go to HD (or Lowes, etc), always check the isle with the wire.
Last week, I walked by, saw the magic yellow sticker at HD,
and sure enough, 500' #14 solid, $5.00 instead of $18.
It had grey insulation, which they are apparently discontinuing.
They had 3 -- I wish they had had 10 of them!  ;-)
