Topband: suitable wire

[Jonathan white]

A big thanks to everyone who posted.
Firstly the top wire is mechanically failing  , I think due to 
wear/abrasion ,also I  dont think there is enough movement in the 
elastic cords .
I use the usual precautions for reliving stress at connection points, 
the thing is there is a solder joint in the flexiweave that has shrink 
wrap applied but that is fine.
So after reading all the letters its going to be copper weld,remove the 
elastics and go back to using sash weights.
Someone asked if the vertical was tube,no its h/d 300 ohm feeder joined 
up top/bottom .
Got myself a decent slingshot/catapult yesterday as I broke the last 
one,ha ha.
Just a slightly different,antenna my home brew 44` vertical  Cebbik  
vertical   works  a treat one I optimized the feeder length.long live 
open wire feeders ;-)

Thanks again
