With 2 way radio and paging companies going away 1/2"and 7/8" Andrew or other brand hardline is bringing scrap value or given away if you ask nice. Connectors are often attached. Grab the telephone book and start calling.

K3VAT - Rich,

In addition to the helpful replies you will receive on the Topband list, you may want to also present to the new Yahoo "Ground Radial" user group.
Presently a 100 or so members there who may also throw out some ideas!

Wishing you luck with the task.

If it may help I offer a product that is fast-easy & affordable which may help with the ground radial set-up.

With Kind Regards

Hello, I'm now able to use a couple acre parcel for a new 80/160M shorty vertical (80'); however, I can use this land only between Nov and May. ? For radials I'm intending on using a #22 stranded hookup wire, 300v and wondering if this particular wire would be suitable for spooling out the ~90 foot radials then respooling them up several months later. ?Expected power = 1KW; Number of radial ~ 40. ?Any hints appreciated.
73, Rich, K3VAT
