As Dick W7TIO noted, the antenna should be selected based on the desired
coverage range of
the rptr. While StationMaster (SM) and similar antennas are at DC ground
be preferred.
Thanks for you input.

Hello All
A couple of years ago I needed to camoflodge several new fiberglass antennas. I
investigated spray can paints at the local home store and came up with

Coating, painting, etc of antenna elements has always been in question.
Some don't like using insulated wire for HF dipoles although think this

This painting of antennas seems to be on many of our minds.

hi all,
I've been looking at the Telewave ANT150F6-2, 144-151 MHz fiberglass collinear
