Up until now I have avoided considering wire antennas fed with ladder line
like a full wave loop or Zepp, because I have metal rain gutters and
windowframes, which the line would inevitably have to contend with. Is this
a big issue? What kind of an effect do metal objects have on ladder line,
and is this prohibitive to putting one up? Should I stick with coax?

Thank you.
