Default antenna around Plastic

In article ,

Can I surround the antenna with tinted plastic


Tony-

The effect depends on frequency. On 4 MHz, you may not notice any
difference. On 400 MHz, you may need to adjust length of antenna
elements.



It will also depend on the material of the tint. It should be
nonconductive.
