>  I am In the process of rehabbing a Force 12 Delta 240/230 beam
antenna. In the past I have rebuilt/repaired the original F-12 wires with 
Aluma-weld 12GA.If my memory serves me there was a thread in the past because 
of theflexingand hardening resulting in failure... another type of wire was 
substituted?  Coper Weld ? Galvanized fence Wire ?
 
    I've installed many F12 antennas over the years and if memory serves me 
correctly, according to Tom the LL design was very sensitive to the type of 
wire used.
