Thank you for all the answers , really was illustrative.
After reading and learning in the process , is not a  solution
but  really  can work in case of EMERGENCY like my fence or others
things with a good AT.
  The question was based in the chance to make  a dipole or several  dipoles
to make a wide band antenna , or verticals.
but the SS is not the way to go,  for the same result (wide radiator and light 
weight) 

 to reach broad band, will be better to make one  cage  using   small gauge 
copper
insulator , small  gauge copper like  16 or 14 to resist the pull.

This Horse fence antenna end to be   another wife tales  of the  magic and 
cheap 
antenna

P.D
There is not cheap antenna,  will cost something "hard" to get , but not for 
all 
the cases or persons  the same thing
copper, insulators , the money to buy(  the correct of those)  and the 
accessories to make it right  using
 lots of   brain and common sense

Again thank you for the  knowledge  and the ideas.
