[Lowfer] Construction help?

I think you will be just fine using those materials. Just seal the pail to
keep the water out and all should work well. You could dope on a layer of
varnish on the plywood if YA wanted to, but it sounds like it will be dry
all the time anyhow. Fire them up and lets see them.

Subject: [Lowfer] Construction help?

I'm doing some late construction, or I guess now it is early for next year??

I've built a new coil form and enclosure for my LEA 1704.811Kc (currently
still DOWN until further notice).

The vertical is bolted to the lid of a 5-gallon pail, with a piece of
plywood on the inside.  The coil form and xmtr are inside the pail.

Would someone comment on the quality of these materials at 1704Kc (the
plywood and pail-lid)?  Should I be concerned with conductivity or
permeability (neglecting water)?

Thanks!
P.S.:
My new coil form is of fiberglass rod and clear plastic - basket wound, etc.
I will get pictures on my page this week.
