[TowerTalk] Rope/Guying

HRO also sells it.

Or you could go to the source.

The 3/16-in rope is plenty strong enough for antennas not under a lot of 
stress, and is fine for your application. We use it for FD and CQP 
antennas. For my very high dipoles (140 ft) strung between tall trees, I 
use 5/16-in, not for stress, but to give my hands enough to grab when 
pulling tension on the ropes.

Several people talk about dacron rope, or phillystran. That's OK but where can  get it. People at my local hardware stores look at me like I'm nuts when I ask for uv resistant rope, even local boating shops are no help.Thanks
