Hello,

i looking for the best wire to build wire antena like quadrifilar etc.
i want the best reference for solid wire because the ones i found are too soft

thanks
 

Thanks
But i’m looking for diameter about 1mm
 

You can use RG402 coax which has 1.3mm core diameter.
 

Thanks Vfone for your answer , i tried to use this wire .
 

by small antenna, do you mean "electrically small"?
If so the resistance in the wire will be CRITICAL if you want it to radiate any power at all. I have even used solid silver wire in certain applications, since silver has the lowest resistivity
