The squirrel discussion reminded me that I need to buy another
500' spool of rope to hoist wire antennas.  

The last one I bought came from rope-rope, no longer in business.
It's .250" braided dacron, which has withstood major loads, both
here and in VT.  It's olive drab, and tends to disappear from view.

Someone mentioned Cable Experts as possible vendors.  I know that
radio works sells some 3/16" od dacron, but I don't know how abrasion
resistant it is.   

Would appreciate opinions about products and vendors.
