YES! W6GJB and I soon learned that soldering stranded copper is a great 
way to have it break after a few years. We've been using nothing but 
copper split-bolts for nearly 15 years. Since copper has gotten a lot 
more expensive, it takes careful shopping to find them at a price that 
doesn't break the bank.

And before I left Chicago, I bought both insulated and bare #12 and #14 
Flexweave and built antennas with it. Every one of them was on the 
ground within a year.
