I'm trying to complete an antenna project and was wondering if anyone knew
of a source for bare, solid copper #10 AWG.

Thanks in advance,

Do you really want to use solid copper in the antenna? It stretches!
For a long antenna, copperweld would be much better!

I actually have met John and spoke with him in person about this on
Monday night. The wire is for a small 2M beam for DFing. It needs to
be quite stiff and increased diameter will make for better B/W.
