I've ordered a lot of different stuff from Chris KF7P and have never been disappointed. If he says that rope fits the bill, it will. You might want 5/8" double braided polyester if your grip is bad,

I had assumed that rope was a passive component to prevent harmonic oscillations that might be caused with varying winds. I just found this fine article by PA9X about this exact subject. Is your ante

I helped put a new one together many years ago. It was a well built antenna, but, depending on where and how it was installed, it could have corroded somewhere. Looking at the instructions, it appear
