Topband: Restistance of wire

[Martin]

Topbanders,
i have a spool of twisted wire for military field telephone use, similar 
to WD1-A . It has some strands of copper and some strands of steel.
I built the reflection transformer and installed both the transformer 
and the wire . The length of the beverage is about 200m. To my surprise 
i measure about 25Ohms with a Multimeter at the feed end of the beverage.
So there is 200m one way, the transformer, and 200m back = 400m of wire.
I believe 25 Ohms is way to high for 400m?

Any advise welcome.
