I have an old Wilson tower, believe the model number is an MT-61. The steel
cables that raise and lower the two tubular sections of the tower are in
need of replacement. The current US tower model MA-550 is very close to the
old Wilson design, if not a clone. Can someone tell me a good source for the
aircraft cable sold by the foot. I need two lengths of about 40 to 50 feet.
I think the current cable is 3/16, should I increase the size? What would
you recommend?



Thanks in advance for you comments.
