Also I was digging through my insulators and I can't find one that
would offer strain relief for the ladder line and perhaps a connection
on top to use a wire or rope to add support to the center of the
antenna. I wonder if anyone has a source for one.


I use the black UV-resistant tie wraps for strain relief.
Run the tie wrap through one of the ladder-line windows
and then through the hole in the insulator. With stranded
ladder-line, I have had absolutely no problem with this
method.
