[TowerTalk] Phillystran Cable Question

[Cqtestk4xs at aol.com]

I had a chance to pick up some of the old style Philly without ends.   This 
stuff needs to have "potted" ends.  Plan on spending at least $35 for  each 
"empty" end and at least $70 for the resin potting compound.  You will  
find the cost is prohibitive unless you are pouring a dozen or so ends, since  
the potting mix has to mixed all at once.
 
The factory can give you the details.

I'm  going to be using Phillystran Cable .22 size and am not able to use 
the  "Big Grip" on a couple of the ends & was wondering if a standard 
"guy  wire clamp" can be used and what is the recommended configuration? 
It  appears that DX Engr. recommends that guy wire clamps only be used on 
.17  and smaller.

Thanks for your input.
