Two more cents worth:
Go to

and check out WUN(TWA).
I'm not sure it is practical for Ham use, but its cool stuff.

John,
Only my 2 cents worth, but for a length that long, I am thinking 10
gauge, due to the fact it has to support its own weight
entirely. 12 would probably work, but I would fear for its
longevity. Is it possible to support it somewhere along its
length? Also, I would try to get a quality insulated wire. Not
just cheap plastic insulation, but one where the jacket is covered
by a protective sheathing. I use this type, but I got it from a
friend, and I have no idea where it came from.
Let's see how the rest of the gang chimes in.
