IMO, Wes is being rather modest. His work on what happens with window 
line when it gets wet (greatly increased loss) was published by ARRL 
in the Antenna Compendium Vol 6. That book also includes two 
excellent papers by Frank Witt. All three are "required reading," and 
well worth the price of the book ($23).
