Hi Dave
Thank you for your really helpful reply. Puts a lot into perspective.
My comment on wire was not directed to metric/imperial - that's a minor inconvenience, just means using wire tables- but to proprietry wire types, eg "'antenna' wire from DavisRF ".
I looked at the Davis RF site - there are several possibilities- did you use flexweave, pe or pvc insulation?
