[TowerTalk] copperweld

I find copperweld and stainless wire both to be very 
hard to work, while soft-drawn copper is more docile,
but stretches.   

My wire of choice is #12, PE insulated, multi-strand 
copperweld.  Radioworks sells it as 'superflex'.
It's either 197 or 256 strand (can't remember which), 
so you can tie knots in the stuff.  I use it to lay 
over the tops of trees, and it's both tame and robust.  
I wouldn't contemplate using anything else.

Quite possibly there are other vendors with similar stuff.
Radioworks clearly isn't the manufacturer.
