Alternatively you could use a ground plane of chicken wire mesh ,a bit
easier to handle than a sheet of metal.

That's a good idea. I always seem to have some tin laying around
and
no chicken wire, but it would work well. Also hardware cloth -- that
stuff
with the little squares that is used a lot on rabbit cage bottoms.....

In fact, they would both be good for corner reflectors, with a PVC
frame...
Or a large bowtie dipole to get broadband at VHF........ hmmmmmmmm.

Thanks Frank, you have ALMOST inspired me to start another
project........... maybe tomorrow :)))))
