Hi All
I plan on making an milair dipole antenna using 1/2 inch PVC pipe as the housing. Would the PVC pipe decrease the signal ? I going to use TV twin lead 300 ohm antenna wire and put it in the pvc pipe for weather protection. If it works good I am going to make 3 more dipoles for 118-137 mhz airband, 406-420 mhz band and 450-512 mhz band. Any info would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
P.S. I'm going to mount the dipoles vertically for omnidirectional use.
