      95% of ham tower usage is either 3/16" EHS equivalent (HPTG4000) or 
1/4" EHS (HPTG6700). That's what Texas Towers and Burghardt stock. In 
addition, Texas Towers stocks 5/16" EHS equivalent (HPTG11200) for REAL manly 
installations.

      I'm pretty sure that any other "dealers" do not stock the Phillystran 
but get it per length from the factory where it is made to order. Reels of 
4000 and 6700 hold 10,000 feet of Phillystran.
