Considering the Par Electronics End-Fed Shortwave Listener's (EF-SWL) Antenna
David,
The Par Electronics End-Fed Shortwave Listener's EF-SWL Antenna uses 45 Feet of # 14 AWG Polyethylene Black Jacketed Flex-Weave Antenna Wire with 168 Copper Strands as it's Wire Antenna Element. FLEX-WEAVE = http://www.davisrf.com/ham1/flexweve.htm That was the basis of the above # 14 AWG comparison ~ RHF |

I have a piece of Teflon insulated, tinned 22g strateched 125' across my backyard that's working just fine. Seems a thick wire like the 14g would require a heavier-duty suppourt arrangement. I just use nails and TyRaps. |

David,
If that is what works for you then that is good enough. ~ RHF |
