Those schooled in antenna design can imagine the condensation this thing
holds after continuous exposure to tropical conditions such as
incredibly high humidity and temps. The antenna errantly uses
transparent Lexan which
has a water absorption and saturation rate. I'm not certain what the
rates are right off the bat, but it's not good for this purpose.

Another antenna designer is born... LOL
