The capacitance between the wires should have no effect since there is no
voltage difference between them, however the increased quantity of insulation
material and the larger effective wire diameter will probably lower the
resonant frequency a few percent so be prepared to trim the length as necessary.

Subject: [TowerTalk] Antenna wire
Hi All
I have a BUNCH of some kind of multi wire cable that * picked up ag
Goodwill*. It has 6 separate wires in the cable.
What I was wondering is if I use this for antenna wire, will the
capacitance between the wires affect the length. I would short the wires
together at each end.
Thanks and 73
