I'm installing a k7nv prop pitch rotor in a few months and wanted to know what and where others have purchased their 10 gauge 3 conductor wire from? This will be around 350 feet long and need to bury

Just do the math. I use burial cable out to the tower base/ power supply (~200 feet). Note: Although the PPM's will run on AC it's best to feed them with DC. Then up the tower (another 100 feet) stil

XHHW may be a better (though more expensive) choice given it's higher UV resistance and heavier jacket.  http://www.distributorwire.com/blog/index.php/wire-cable-products/xhhw-wire/ _________________
