I am getting ready to put out a radial field for my 80M shunt-fed tower antenna. I have not read anywhere what is the best type of wire or gauge for this project. I have a large spool of 18 ga. enameled wire at my disposal - but would stranded wire be best? The "invisible-fence" wire at Home Depot is pretty cheap - looks like 7- strand 18 ga. I would appreciate the collective advice.
