Topband: Beverage Wire

[Barry N1EU]

I have to comment that I've had  very poor experience with #14 stranded from 
the same source.  It stretches and breaks very easily.  I tore it out after 
one year and replaced it with copperweld ladder line (I went bidirectional) 
with excellent results.

If you go the Home Depot route, I would recommend the solid wire over the 
stranded - stronger and easier to repair.
