Here's an idea. I'd be interested in others' reaction. This may sound a
little wacky but...
My car has a sunroof that retracts into the head space. It doesn't ride up
out and over the roof, in other words. So from (1) an RF exposure point of
view and (2) for possible betterment of the radiated signal, I'm thinking of
taping heavy-duty aluminum foil on the underside of the glass sunroof.
Perhaps also to grounding it somehow to metal in the assembly/track.
Worthwhile, useless or a bad idea? I can't attempt this experiment until the
HTX-10 I bought for an upcoming long road trip arrives.
Thanks
