Also, where do you all find Copperweld? It sounds ideal, but I
haven't been able to find it anywhere.
Thanks!
Copperweld, or "copper clad steel" antenna wire should not be hard to
find.
http://www.radioworks.com carries some good coperweld. Belden
makes a #14 stranded (7) coppeweld antenna wire, available at
http://www.aesham.com , amongst other places.
Personally, I'd use the nice stuff you already have. Good luck.
