Dennis,
I can recommend a Dacron/Polyesther rope for antenna support work. The
Black Dacron covering provides UV and abrasion protection and the Polyesther
core
is virtually stretch proof (unlike nylon) and very strong. Various sizes
are available from Cubex Antenna company, 3/16",1/8" , 3/16" are suitable for
most wire antennas. My choice is the 1/8" .

Norm W4QN

Hi,
Can someone suggest a source of black rope for use in
wire antennae.
One such rope is 3/16 braided nylon(?) in a black
sleeve.
My use is for longwire installation from the outside
of the insulators to the supports--trees in my case.

Dennis, W1UF
