I am using the #14 copper flexweave, but I prefer the tinned stuff, as I
don't have to clean off the oxidation to solder it after it's been out in
the weather. I'm using #12 from Davis RF, #FW12T. I tie it in a square
knot to increase the length (later solder it), and even tie it in a bowline
or two half hitches to an insulator. (I actually have the Boy Scouts Knots
book!).

Subject: Re: [TowerTalk] Who makes Flexweave wire
Hi George;
Flex-Weave(TM) was designed by Steve Davis of Davis RF Company and is a
trademark of Davis RF. Contact them via www.davisrf.com since I believe
they have exclusive marketing rights with the OEM and Davis RF holds the
United States Trademark.
(Chelcom in the UK purchased their Flex-Weave (TM) from Davis, so the
"patent" comments at their web site are very misleading.
There are several model sizes in both bare and insulated versions.
Good luck & 73,
