If it has fallen from grace, I don't know why...maybe cost? On my new tower in
V31 I use some of the old stuff (potted ends, 6700#) on the lowest set of guys
and brand new 6700# stuff) on the rest of the guys. With the very thick wrap
of the new stuff it is really tough. Again, I will admit it is pretty pricey.
I got my old stuff at less than $1/ft. The price is more than double that now.
By the way, the Philly can be picked up used or in my case, brand new. I found
a brand new roll of 1900 ft (6700#) for about a buck/ft and brand new ends for
1/2 price.
