I have had long term success using 1/8" chain saw pull cord to tie my wire 
dipoleS up with: full sized 80 and 160. Since 1980, rope thru a pulley is same, 
where the rope is in a 90' tall pine I do exercise the rope to inspect it, and 
to insure it doesn't grow into the tree. The 160 dipole is 256' of 12ga 
copperweld with no issues, except the 100ft of open wire does break at dipole 
center.

FYI
