[TowerTalk] Re: Beverage/Wire tension

[00tlzivney@bsuvc.bsu.edu]

The aluminum electric fence wire is about 2 or 3 times the cost of galvanized
wire.  The problem I have had with the aluminum wire is that IF you kink it,
you can guarentee that it will break after a while in the wind.  Remember
that an electric farm fence does not normally have 100 feet or more between
posts like we want to do with a beverage antenna.
