Topband: Restistance of wire

     The resistance sounds about right Martin. Most of the conductivity 
comes from the copper strands. 
  Steel strands have high mechanical strength, but poor conductivity. 
  I square R loss is low as signal current is very low.

    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.
