Duelund DCA16GA

Yes, twist every 1.5-2 inches and use a short piece of shrink tubing every 2.5-3 feet to hold the twist. Use bare wire for hook up. Be sure to clean the stripped ends as they will have some dried oil residue from the oil impregnated cotton.  

Thanks a lot for the information guys.

Blue Jeans coax - sounds good to me

Just pulled the trigger on 12 meters of DCA16GA. Hoping it's a big improvement over my AQ Type 4. Good price but very bizarre ordering process.

Earlier in the thread it was mentioned that the wire should first be cleaned to remove any oils. Would rubbing alcohol on a cotton swab do? Or is another solvent better.

Also I was a little surprised to see these were stranded wires instead of solid core. I had always assumed solid core was better. Is that generally true?

Yes indeed I have always preferred solid core to stranded in the past  Howeve,  Duelund changed all that with this new wire. 

Just clean the rubbing alcohol. That is fine. I used a lint free cloth.
