I will be installing wire HF antennas for  indigenous communities in the 
Amazon, a hot and humid environment. What kind of  wire would you folks recommend 
for such use? I have used uv coated stranded  stainless steel (even though 
stainless is a compromise for HF) I purchased at  Boeing surplus in the past. Is 
there any copper product (well insulated?) that  would hold up well in such an 
extreme environment? Know of any vendors of same?  feel free to contact me
