I get mine and BC Wire and Rope in Anaheim. They also have stores in San
Diego, Nevada, and Arizona.

I use Prelube 6, formulated specifically for cables. It comes in a spray
can. Lubricates and inhibits rust plus it does not leave a sticky
covering on the outside of the cable to attract dust and grit like
grease does. I get mine at: http://www.championradio.com/
