Has anyone got about 8m of 300m slotted ribbon feeder they could let me
have, please?

The top section of my 80m GP consists of helically wound 300 ohm ribbon on a
fibre glass fishing rod. Something went pooof 2 hours before the end of CQWW
and I suspect the wire has burnt out about half way along. Luckily I have a
spare f/g rod so just need to rewind the helix and gin pole the mast down to
effect a repair. Well it all helps to keep you fit, a return journey to the
base of the gp is 250m !
