Stranded is fine my solid wires get tangled up and hard to run out at times. I have used most any kind of wire and get results, flexible stranded is fine and easy to roll up when done. I have built insulated antennas of various shapes and used Archer Antenna wire from Radio Shack. Strong, I used springs when conneted to trees or anything that had give and they woul stay up during storms. I have a friend who built a pneumatic antenna launcher, he shoots long wire antennas up into trees, looks like a bazooka, scares the neighbors. Good luck.
