Why is copper better than steel for wire antenna?
The local price at Home Improvement stores is less than $25 for 500
feet of 14 gauge wire. I use electric fence insulators from the farm supply store. I have been disapointed in the mechanical strength of the Aluminum electric fence wire. On 6 Oct 2006 23:05:03 -0700, "Brian Kelly" wrote: John Ferrell W8CCW John Ferrell W8CCW |
