Steve, I have found that ties made from ordinary 2 conductor + ground house
wire holds up very well here in Texas. Available everywhere, choice of
Black or White covering and you cut it to the length of your liking.
Once you get the knack of installing, it even looks pretty good. I use a
pair of Vice-Grip pliers to install by clamping the wire ends and twisting
until the excess breaks off.

This has been discussed before, but without a really satisfying answer.
Does any one have the brand and product number of a UV resistant wire
tie, proven to last many years ?
I have used many so-called UV resistant ties that are junk. OTOH, the
wire ties provided by M2 with my 6 year old 40M4LLDD have held up very
well, despite the UV-rich environment here in NM.
