Does really PVC absorb or RF or just act as a dielectric?
The reason I ask is I'm looking at encasing an antenna project for the sake of
weatherproofing and PVC would fit the bill rather easily.

AJ, if you replace the steel mast with a fiberglass one,
won't you still have the metallic feed line there?
Doesn't PVC absorb RF?

On this same topic of the mast-less Antennex/Laird dipole arrays, has anyone
attempted to top mount these from a fiberglass mast to minimize interaction
with the normal steel pole? I have quite a few surplus fiberglass poles left
that would likely work, even for side mounting on 1/2 wave spacing from the
tower...
On that same note, does anyone have construction plans for a dipole array (not
necessarily folded dipoles)? I remember seeing a set of plans somewhere quite a
while ago - we're thinking of constructing one but encasing the dipoles in
fiberglass or PVC to try to protect from the weather and debris at our site
(top of a large farm field)...
