- Just to be sure everyone has heard this - Scotch Super 88 is MUCH better for Ham use than 33+. Super 88 is the top of the line. It sticks better, longer, etc, in the sun, etc. I know we've posted thi

- RE: Scotch 33+ Intrigued by this price, I looked - it's for the 20' rolls. The 66' rolls are $3.53 each, slightly higher than commonly available. Home Depot is usually around 2.95 each. -- Steve K8LX

- I have always heard that you SHOULD stretch electrical tape for all but the last turn or two. I use Scotch Tartan which I get for 50 cents a roll. I change things around enough that I don't want to p

- According to 3M, it is exactly the same tape - except 88 is slightly thicker. I've found 33+ to be equal quality - YMMV. -- Steve K8LX List Sponsor: Are you thinking about installing a tower this sum

- slightly Same here. I will add that the last wrap or two wraps is critical to the longevity in the sun. Take the time to cut it when your finishing up a wrap. Currently my oldest Scotch 33 outdoors

- I third that comment. 33 is fine if the last 2 or so wraps are pre-cut and the stretch is done before that. Hank KN6DI List Sponsor: Are you thinking about installing a tower this summer? Call us for

- For that price I don't think it's 33 or 88 - the ONLY common electrical tapes worth using. Just about anything else is junk. Cheers, Steve K7LXC Tower Tech List Sponsor: Are you thinking about instal

- 33+ and 88 are identical except for the fact that 88 is thicker - 0.215 mm for 88 vs. 0.177 mm for 33+. Some people prefer 88 because it's thicker and resists UV better. Your choice. Cheers, Steve K
