[Antennas] antenna paint

Sun Aug 15 16:33:15 EDT 2004

Paul,
While I personally have never done it; I have heard of hams who have
camouflaged their antennas by painting them with no change in
performance at all. As long as the metal to metal connections are left
bare, you should have no problem with performance.
