Hi Cecil,

The sheets of roofing are secured together via tek screws that pass
through the overlapping sheets where they are fixed to the truss - so
probably??? Maybe??? No not really.

Consequences?

cheers, Peter.

That describes my aluminum roof.
Never had a problem.
Slope gives a ~50ohm impedance, as mentioned before.

Strange happenings are possible. Unpredictable varying
current and radiation patterns, changing impedances,
harmonics generated at the ground plane, ... It may
be the best thing since sliced bread but it may not be.
