yes but this assumes the guy pulling up the wire knows something about
copper wire. I would bet he's no good at distinguishing the difference
between the moon and the sun and worse at eyeballing no. 10 bare copperweld
and knowing it's not no. 10 solid. especially if they're out there at
night. this is why i'm a bit nervous about my heliax runs. the stuff
really doesn't have much copper. the shield is thin enough to peel with
pliars. the center is cladded aluminum. but a thief might think it's the
mother lode. of course the scrap dealer will probably set him straight but
by then the damage is done. you think he's gonna come back and apologize?
