Anyone familiar with these full length roof vents on newer houses and
re-roofs?
Are they metal or plastic?
Looking to buy a house (in Michigan) and it has such a vent. An outside
antenna seems unlikely as it is a newer subdivision so I'll probably have to
go camouflaged vertical or a peak of the roof, indoor dipole.

If you're talking about "ridge vents" I think they're typically
plastic -- it's cheaper -- but you should be able to figure that out
by looking at them up close. Or check a roofing supplier.

A piece of wire would probably be more predictable and measurable.
