Fellow contesters

The XYL is geting fed-up with all the ropes (amongst other things!) at QTH 
G4LMW.

So, I plan to replace the support ropes for various dipoles (topband, 80M, 
40M) wth fishing line.

My question is - what breaking strain would be advisable? Obviously, a lower 
strain would be more invisible, but how low do I dare go?

Regards
Rob, G4LMW
