Using speaker wire for a dipole
Very simply, yes, it can be used for making antennas. If it's strong
enough to hold up it's own weight, and that of the feed line without
stretching unreasonably, then it should do fine. What happens if it
stretches? You shorten it. I think I'd try a larger size for 160
meters and maybe 80 meters, but if it can stand the weight and the
weather, why not?
