Hello, I'm now able to use a couple acre parcel for a new 80/160M shorty vertical (80'); however, I can use this land only between Nov and May.  

For radials I'm intending on using a #22 stranded hookup wire, 300v and wondering if this particular wire would be suitable for spooling out the ~90 foot radials then respooling them up several months later.  Expected power = 1KW; Number of radial ~ 40.  Any hints appreciated.
