Hi All,

I need to restring a bundle of coax/rotator cables (4 x LMR-400, 3
x rotator) across a steel messenger cable suspended between two
buildings (~100' span). What is the preferred method for attaching
the cables to the messenger. Seems that not all black cable ties are
UV stable over the long term. I'd like something with a 15-20 year
lifetime. Scotch 35? #14 awg solid copper electrical wire? UV stable
tiewrap?

Thanks,

73 de Mike, W4EF................................
