I was lucky enough to come up with 8 to 10 spools of this stuff.  Plan to 
use it for a radial field for my transmitt antenna at some point.  Biggest 
problem I see is not being able to solder it to a ground buss.  I will 
probably use a plate of some sort and stainless bolts for a mechanical 
connection.  Got the wire for free so I guess it's worth the headache of 
trying to figure out how to get it connected.
