...It gives me 1/2 mile for the same money as 500 ft of 14 ga stranded copper...but will my antenna perform as well as one with stranded copper, all other things being equal?

yes, it is about 1/4 the price, that's why I posted the link.:)

stranded wire is my choice,.... its easier to work with, and it has more surface area than a single wire of the same gauge....... RF only travels on the wires surface (skin effect)

    Hello gentlemen and Ladies. I have the dreaded RCI-2990 receive issue where my radio gets distorted when people get close to my location. I found the C90 Capacitor, but I can not for the life of me find the C89 capacitor. Can or does anyone have a picture of the exact location of C89 ? Thank you in advance, Wes
