Mastrant provided all the rope for WRTC 2014 and appears to being doing so 
for WRTC 2018 as well.  Good stuff!  (I was on one of the beam teams, so I 
used quite a bit of it.)

New to me, looks interesting. How is its abrasion resistance? I'm
thinking of pulleys, and going over tree limbs?

Note that the link I posted yesterday for the SOURCE of the black dacron
antenna rope that everyone sells is about half the cost of DXE for the
same stuff. I've used a LOT of it. It's only Achilles heel is abrasion
resistance.
