Hi TowerTalkians:
I'm going to build a 3el 5-band quad, 20-10M, and I'm looking for 
suggestions re: what wire to use, and where to get it.
www.thewireman.com has: "Silky' 16 AWG, 19 strand, tinned, 40% 
copper-clad steel. Designed as a replacement for restringing quads, but 
popular as an easy-to-use dipole wire."
That seems to be the only wire on that page with the word "quad" in the 
description. Is this the right stuff, or is there something better?
And/or somewhere better to get it? Won't be used beyond 1500W PEP.

Thanks.

73,
Randy
