Hi Steve
Do you have the correct measurement for the 17m element?
A lot of people say 4400 is incorrect as its too long.
Many thanks

I'm in the process of building a homebrew Cobwebb Ariel.
I have found two different sizes for the twin cable elements, figure 8 42
strand 0.2mm, but on the Cobwebb web site it says figure 8 84 strand.
Also in the Cobwebb revealed PDF doc that I downloaded on page 5 it says
each core is 42 strands of 0.2mm diameter and on page 7 of the same doc
it
says figure 8 84 strand. So I'm a little confused.
Does anyone know what is the correct cable to use, 42 strand 0.2mm or 84
strand 0.2mm?
Many thanks
