Thanks....didn't expect to be able to pick it up from the sheds...I

Hmmmn, I'm not so sure, I think lashing wire is special (well, different
anyway) in that you just loop it through a bracket, twist it back on (and
around) itself and it will hold. I'm not sure that either regular wire
rope or catenary wire will do the same self gripping job. I stand to be
corrected but TV tech groups might have that specialist knowledge,
uk.tech.digital-tv springs to mind but there may be a better choice.

Nope, this stuff is stranded. As Geoff points out CPC have got it:

but it's only 5m so the o/p may still need a join. I don't know the right way
to join these but wire rope grips should do the job. The smaller sizes of
galvanized grips are mis-described on the CPC site as wire rope.
