Hi Jeff, 


I use 14 AWG THHN stranded wire for temporary radials laying 
on the ground. Its lays flat.

Subject: Topband: Radial wire 

I’m looking for suggestions for radial wire that will lay as flat as 
possible. I realize that’s probably what everyone is looking for, however 
I have used the wire from the big box stores THHN etc. and it always has 
that permanent curl to it or permanent for a good long while. 

Anyone know of anything that is very flexible right out of the gate test 
lead wire comes to mind but probably too expensive. 
Thanks 
Jeff, N0OST
