I recently did two different jobs doing exactly what you're doing - I was
hesitant because it was my first after 11 years.  They went super and it was
very easy.  It was very hot and humid weather for the one job and it lasted
the 3 days they wanted it to.  I did not have to contend with lots of wind
either time.  I've heard you're not suppose to use in winds over 15
miles/hour.
If you can't hand tie it - use an electrical tie.  The first one I hand tied
- the second one I couldn't - so be prepared with electrical tie.  We used a
tent stake on the one because it was in an open field - the other one I tied
to a tree. One we taped the flags every few feet to the rope - the other one
we let fly seperate.
  I used qualatex both times but have been told it's best to use a type sold
by ToyTex - it's suppose to be heavier weight.
  Notice - I've been told that Pioneer will not be producing anymore 5' until
1999.....so check with distributor.
   I hope this helps.
