Pete,
You can sandwich the copper tape between a couple of layers of fiberglass 
cloth, let them set up and then glue the rig in wherever you feel like. Bury 
the copper tape directly in the foam of your vertical or glue it directly onto 
your vertical stabilizer if it is already glassedĀ and cover over with a layer 
of fiberglass cloth if you feel like fairing it in! The best way is to place it 
on your foam before you cover it with fiberglass to begin with.

I'm trying to duplicate Mark Langford's comm antenna installation using a arrow 
shaft to support the lower half of the dipole.

So far, all the local sporting goods stores and hobby shops only carry carbon 
fiber arrow shafts. Can they be used in lieu of fiberglass? Somewhere, I 
thought I read that carbon fiber would hamper transmission of any radio 
signal????? 



I await responses from those with any info.



Thanks,
