Message Posted:     In Reply to: Best type of wire for HF antennas ? posted by George on 03/02/01 The only time I have seen the type of wire make a difference was in a big quad I built 20 years ago. I used insulated No. 12 wire and it was awful. I spend a week of evenings scraping insulation off over 1,000 feet of wire on the quad, on the tower, and it fixed it completely, right to specs. If it is mechanically suitable, it shouldn't really matter.
