Hello 357: Yeah those wire call outs will work just great, I have used the 12 gauge black multi strand wire several years ago.

The Gamma Matches should be able to be salvaged, I think, never tried. The Moonraker 4 and 6 element beam antennas I modified were made longer, stronger, and the Gamma Match was replaced with a insulated split Hairpin Matching system.

The smaller aluminum tubing can be anielded, or heated up and easily bent. The 6061 T6 and 6063 T832 are not recommended to be bent, but the smaller diameters ( 1/2 and 3/8 inch diameters ) can be bent easily.
