Would  appreciate opinions about products and vendors.


Jim;
 
Parachute cord works FB, and can be had in several colors -- Can be  found 
all over the internet. I bought my last spool on e-bay... very  cheap.
 
I've had some wire antennas up for at least 5 years with no problems. The  
*support ropes* for my TH-7DX are also parachute cord (doubled) and have  been 
up there for at least 5 years too.
 
The stuff I'm using is black - Which may, or may not, be contributing to  its 
longevity.
