[Elecraft] OT - anyone have experience with effects of metalroofs on antenna performace?

[Phil Shepard]

Ah, memories …  I took an antenna class from Balanis, and we used photo copies of his fledgling book, acting as proofers.  He was my senior EE project advisor as well.   Quite a character.  I wish I still remembered a fraction of what I knew then.  Hi hi.

No bragging, it was the highest grade.  They graded on a curve. My prof was a world renown antenna expert.  He liked to &@#* with us. So if anyone figures out this antenna stuff email me
